EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Anne of Brittany, a prominent historical figure who held the titles of Duchess of Brittany and Queen of France. Born in 1476, she married Charles VIII of France in 1491 and later wed Louis XII after Charles' passing in 1499. The coloured lithograph is a reproduction from Heures d'Anne de Bretagne, a book that depicts various aspects of her life. In this particular image, Anne is depicted at prayer, surrounded by her patron saints. Her regal attire and crown symbolize her position as queen while also reflecting the fashion trends of the time. The halo above her head signifies her devout Christian faith and piety. The lithograph offers us a glimpse into the religious devotion and spirituality that were integral to Anne's life. As she kneels in prayer, we can sense her deep connection with God and seek solace through faith during challenging times. Anne's legacy extends beyond religion; she played an influential role in shaping both French history and Brittany's cultural identity. This print serves as a reminder not only of Anne's royal status but also highlights her significant contributions to politics, art, and literature during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Overall, this print captures the essence of Anne's multifaceted persona - a powerful monarch devoted to Christianity while leaving an indelible mark on both France and Brittany.
