EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant historical moment as Pierre de Bressuire presents his book to John II the Good on the enchanting island of the Cite in Paris. The scene is depicted in a stunning miniature from "Histoire romaine" (Ad urbe condita) by Titus Live, translated by Pierre Bressuire. Created between 1450 and 1500, this artwork now resides at the Musee Conde in Chantilly, France. In this exquisite piece, we witness Pierre de Bressuire offering his precious book to King John II amidst the backdrop of Paris' city island. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring life to this medieval setting, transporting us back to a time when monarchies reigned supreme. The symbolism within this image is profound; it showcases not only the power dynamics between author and king but also represents knowledge and wisdom being passed down through generations. The lily flower prominently displayed further emphasizes royalty and purity associated with kingship during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable work of art, we are reminded of its historical significance - an embodiment of both the Middle Ages and 15th-century French culture. This photograph print serves as a testament to human creativity throughout history while honoring those who have contributed to our collective understanding through their literary works.
