EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases King Charles IX of France, a prominent figure in the 16th century. Engraved by Chevrolat and colored with exquisite detail, this piece captures the essence of French royalty during that era. King Charles IX is depicted here in regal attire, wearing a doublet and breeches adorned with intricate patterns. His clothing reflects the fashion trends of the time, showcasing padded hose and a pourpoint. A toque sits atop his head, adding an air of elegance to his appearance. The portrait exudes power and authority as it immortalizes this influential monarch. King Charles IX was known for his reign during turbulent times, including the infamous St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre in 1572 which occurred under his rule. Beyond its historical significance, this print also highlights elements of masculinity and virility associated with kingship. The ruff around King Charles IX's neck adds a touch of refinement while emphasizing his royal status. As we gaze upon this artwork from centuries ago, we are transported back to an era defined by political intrigue and cultural transformation. This stunning engraving serves as a testament to both the artistic skill of Chevrolat and the enduring legacy of King Charles IX within French history.
