EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the frontispiece of "La Gallerie des Femmes Fortes" (The Gallery of Strong Women) by Pierre Le Moyne, published in Paris in 1647. Created by Pietro da Cortona and engraved by Karl Audran, this engraving is housed in the Bibliotheque de L'Arsenal in Paris, France. The artwork depicts a scene where two allegorical women are seen diligently writing on a pedestal that supports a statue of Anne of Austria. The inscription beneath reads "Anne of Austria, Regent of France and Mother of the People". This book was dedicated to Anne herself and written by French Jesuit Pierre Le Moyne as an account of the lives of twenty famous and exemplary women throughout history. With its intricate details and symbolic representation, this image celebrates female strength and serves as a testament to feminism long before its time. It highlights the forceful nature and remarkable achievements these women have made throughout history. From queens to warriors, each biography within this book sheds light on their extraordinary stories. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded not only of Anne's influential role as regent but also her impact as a mother figure for her people. This visual masterpiece captures both historical significance and artistic brilliance while honoring these inspiring women who defied societal norms with their courage and determination.
