EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving depicts Charles 9, the 61st king of France, as he ascends the throne in 1560 and tragically meets his demise in 1574. The artwork is a detail from a popular engraving by Pellerin of Epinal, found in the Galerie Des Rois et Reines de France. Charles 9's reign was marked by significant political and religious turmoil. He inherited the throne at a young age and faced numerous challenges during his rule, including conflicts between Catholics and Protestants that ultimately led to the infamous St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre. The artist skillfully captures Charles 9's regal presence as he assumes power on the throne. The vibrant colors bring life to this historical moment, allowing us to imagine ourselves witnessing this pivotal event firsthand. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the rich history of French royalty and their enduring legacy. It serves as a testament to the power and influence held by kings and queens throughout Europe during this era. This image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into an important chapter of French history.
