Dating from the late 14th or early 15th century, the print shows Boucicaut standing confidently in his intricately designed armor, his helmet resting on a nearby table. Born in 1366, Jean Boucicaut began his military career under King Charles VI of France. He quickly rose through the ranks, earning a reputation as a skilled and brave warrior.
