EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print depicts Philippe de Commynes (circa 1447-1511), a prominent French statesman and chronicler of the late Middle Ages. Commynes, whose name is variously spelled as Commynes, Chasselet, and Col throughout history, is shown here in the prime of his life, dressed in the elegant attire of a nobleman. His piercing gaze and serious expression suggest a man of great intelligence and determination. Born into a noble Flemish family, Commynes rose to prominence in the court of King Louis XI of France. He served as the king's chamberlain, secretary, and advisor, and later became the governor of the French province of Picardy. Commynes is best known, however, for his role as the chronicler of the French monarchy during the late 15th century. His memoirs, "Memoirs of Philippe de Commynes," provide an invaluable firsthand account of the political intrigues and power struggles that marked the end of the Valois dynasty and the beginning of the Renaissance in France. The print captures the essence of Commynes' complex character - a man of action and a man of letters, a diplomat and a historian. The intricate details of his clothing, from the rich fabrics to the elaborate embroidery, reflect the opulence and grandeur of the French court during this period. The background, with its ornate borders and delicate foliage, adds to the sense of history and nostalgia. Overall, this print offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of a remarkable figure in French history, whose legacy continues to captivate scholars and enthusiasts alike.
