EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Duke Charles le Temeraire in the midst of his court, surrounded by the esteemed Knights of the Order of the Golden Fleece. Created by the Flemish School in the 15th century, this vellum artwork is a testament to their exquisite craftsmanship. Intricately detailed, this piece showcases Duke Charles, also known as Charles, Duke of Burgundy (1433-1477), alongside his loyal knights who were dedicated to defending both the Roman Catholic church and upholding chivalric codes. It is believed that this gathering took place at Trier while awaiting Emperor Frederick III. The image reveals a rich tapestry of symbols and elements within its foliate border. From coats of arms to messengers and vassels, every detail adds depth and meaning to this medieval scene. The manuscript illuminates an important ritualistic meeting taking place within a grand chamber where bishops and aristocrats are seated. Duke Charles himself sits enthroned at the center, exuding power and authority. This ceremony serves as a reminder of his role as a knightly leader within society. The presence of illuminated miniatures further enhances the regal atmosphere surrounding him. As we delve into this historical masterpiece from Bridgeman Images' Private Collection - The Stapleton Collection - we are transported back in time to witness an audience with one of history's most influential figures.
