EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant print captures a solemn moment in French history, depicting King Henri IV on his death-bed in 1610 alongside his wife, Queen Marie de Medicis. Henri IV, known as the "Good King Henry," ruled France from 1589 until his assassination in 1610.
In this engraving, we see the king looking frail and vulnerable, surrounded by loved ones as he nears the end of his life. His wife, Queen Marie de Medicis, stands by his side with a look of sorrow and resignation on her face.
Henri IV was a beloved monarch who worked tirelessly to bring peace and prosperity to France during a time of great political turmoil. His death marked the end of an era for the French monarchy and left a void that would be difficult to fill.
The details captured in this engraving offer us a glimpse into the final moments of one of France's most iconic rulers. The somber atmosphere is palpable as we witness the passing of a king who left an indelible mark on history.
As we reflect on this image, we are reminded of the fleeting nature of power and prestige. Even kings must eventually succumb to mortality, leaving behind legacies that endure long after they are gone.
