EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment when Henri IV, also known as Henry of Navarre, triumphantly enters Paris in 1594. Published in the mid-19th century by Colart for Histoire de France, this engraving showcases the grandeur and significance of this event. Henri IV's arrival is met with an outpouring of adulation and jubilation from his subjects. As he confidently rides on horseback through the streets of Paris, courtiers and commoners alike bow and kneel before their beloved monarch. The air is filled with a sense of celebration as flags and banners flutter in the wind, proudly displaying their loyalty to their king. The scene depicts not only Henri IV himself but also his retinue of soldiers who accompany him on this triumphant entry into the city. The image beautifully captures the power and majesty associated with royalty during this era. This print serves as a visual testament to Henri IV's reign as French king from 1589 until his death in 1610. It offers us a glimpse into a significant moment in history when a ruler was welcomed with open arms by his people. Displayed here is not just an artwork but also a historical document that allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved in its creation and its importance within French history.
