EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant historical event, the Estates General of Paris Meeting in Notre-Dame after the Death of Charles IV. Painted by Jean Alaux in 1841, this oil on canvas artwork measures an impressive 400x370 cm and is currently housed at the Château de Versailles in France. The painting depicts a momentous gathering that took place on February 1st, 1328. Following the death of King Charles IV (1295-1328), representatives from all three orders - clergy, nobility, and commoners - convened at Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris. This meeting was crucial as it marked the proclamation of the Salic law by Philippe VI of Valois (1293-1350). As we delve into this image's intricate details, we are transported back to medieval times. The grandeur of Notre-Dame's interior is beautifully captured with its towering arches and majestic stained glass windows illuminating the scene. In the center stands a regal throne where Philippe VI addresses his subjects with authority. The assembly gathered around him showcases individuals from different walks of life coming together for a common purpose: to shape their nation's future. The atmosphere within Notre-Dame is palpable as discussions unfold amidst hushed whispers and intense debates. Alaux masterfully brings history to life through his brushstrokes, allowing us to witness this pivotal moment firsthand. This remarkable artwork serves as both a testament to our past and an inspiration for unity and progress
