EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of deep devotion and spirituality in the 14th or 15th century. Jean Jouvenel des Ursins, the esteemed provost of the merchants of Paris, is depicted alongside his wife, Michelle de Vitry, engaged in prayer. Their hands are clasped together as they kneel before an altar, their faces filled with reverence. The engraving is a 19th-century rendition based on an original manuscript illustration from centuries earlier. It beautifully portrays the couple's unwavering faith and commitment to their Christian beliefs. The presence of a sword bearer hints at the intertwining nature of religion and warfare during this era. Jouvenel des Ursins was not only known for his religious fervor but also for his success in trade and commerce. This image serves as a reminder that even amidst worldly pursuits, one can find solace through prayer and spiritual connection. The monochrome aesthetic adds to the timeless quality of this artwork, emphasizing its historical significance. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back to a bygone era where faith played an integral role in people's lives. This remarkable piece from Le Moyen Age et la Renaissance by Paul Lacroix, Ferdinand Sere, and A Rivaud allows us to glimpse into the past while contemplating themes such as marriage, devotion, religion, and weaponry. It stands as a testament to human resilience and our eternal quest for meaning beyond material possessions.
