King Dagobert I - A Royal Wardrobe Malfunction
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this whimsical and comical illustration, we are transported back in time to witness a hilarious moment from the life of King Dagobert I. The renowned monarch, known for his eccentricities, finds himself in an embarrassing situation as he attempts to put on his trousers but unknowingly wears them inside out! The artist Job, pseudonym for Onfray de Breville, Jacques captures the sheer surprise and dismay on King Dagobert's face as he realizes his fashion faux pas. With hands covering his face in disbelief, the king's trusted advisor looks on with shock while a mischievous little girl peeks from behind the throne, unable to contain her laughter. This charming scene is taken from "France, Son Histoire" by G. Montorgueil and showcases Job's brilliant use of color lithography. The vibrant hues bring life to every detail - from the regal attire of King Dagobert to the intricate patterns adorning the throne. Through this lighthearted portrayal of royalty caught off guard by their own human follies, we are reminded that even kings can have moments of vulnerability and amusement. This delightful print not only tickles our funny bone but also offers a glimpse into French history during King Dagobert I's reign (c. 603-39).
