EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment from the medieval era, showcasing the esteemed King of France, Louis IX (Saint Louis), and his horse engaging in an extraordinary interaction. The king is seen confiding in his miniature chaplains while mounted on his majestic steed. This scene is derived from a manuscript titled "Life and miracles of Saint Louis" by William of Saint Pathus, dating back to 1320. The image exudes an air of spirituality as it portrays the devout Catholic monarch immersed in prayer and consultation with his trusted clergymen. The intricate details within this illuminated manuscript highlight the religious fervor that characterized the Middle Ages. The photograph's composition emphasizes both the regal stature of King Louis IX and the loyalty between him and his noble companion. As they embark on their journey through 13th-century France, this depiction showcases not only their deep bond but also symbolizes unity between man and beast. Through this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness a significant moment in history when faith played an integral role in shaping society. It serves as a reminder of how religion permeated every aspect of life during those times – even during moments as mundane as telling time or seeking guidance for royal affairs. Overall, this remarkable print offers us a glimpse into medieval culture while celebrating the enduring legacy of one of France's most revered kings.
