1360 1431 Chronicler Juvenal Ursins
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures Jean Juvenal Des Ursins (1360-1431), a renowned French chronicler and historian, deeply engrossed in his work. Des Ursins, born in Tours, France, lived during a pivotal period in European history, witnessing the Hundred Years War and the rise of the Valois dynasty. He is best known for his extensive historical works, which provide invaluable insights into the political and social landscape of the late Middle Ages. Des Ursins' most famous work, "Chronique de la ville et du comté d'Anjou," chronicles the history of the County of Anjou from its origins to the late 14th century. His meticulous research and detailed accounts have made this work an essential resource for historians studying the Angevin dynasty and the broader context of European history during this time. In this portrait, Des Ursins is depicted with a quill pen in hand and an open book before him, symbolizing his dedication to the written word and the preservation of history. The intricate details of his clothing and the richly decorated room around him reflect the wealth and status of the scholar and the importance of his work during the late Middle Ages. Des Ursins' contributions to historical scholarship have endured through the centuries, making him an enduring figure in the annals of French and European history. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the power of the written word to capture the past and illuminate the present.
