EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 17th century, immersing us in the world of French royalty and military prowess. The image showcases three prominent figures of the time - Gilles de Courtenvaux de Souvre, M de Bellegarde, and M de Pluvinel. Gilles de Courtenvaux de Souvre, a distinguished soldier and Marshal of France, stands tall at the center of the composition. His regal attire exudes authority as he gazes confidently into the distance. Flanking him on either side are his esteemed colleagues - Bellegarde and Pluvinel. These two men were renowned riding instructors who had been entrusted with educating none other than King Louis XIII himself. The attention to detail in their clothing is remarkable; from their elegant doublets to their tights and hose, every element reflects the fashion trends of that era. Their swords rest by their sides, symbolizing both their occupation as soldiers and guardians of royalty. This engraving not only captures a moment frozen in time but also offers a glimpse into an age marked by warfare, education, and power struggles within European kingdoms. It serves as a testament to the significance of these individuals' roles in shaping history during this period. As we admire this historical artifact from La France et les Francais a Travers les Siecles collection, we can't help but be transported back centuries ago when honor was valued above all else.
