Jeanne de Sancerre, Sister of Louis de Sancerre, Constable of France: A Regal Portrait from the 14th Century This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by Georges Jacques Gatine after an illustration by Louis Marie Lante in the "Galerie Francaise de Femmes Celebres" published in Paris in 1827, offers a captivating glimpse into the past, featuring the enchanting likeness of Jeanne de Sancerre. Born in the late 13th or early 14th century, Jeanne was the sister of Louis de Sancerre, who rose to prominence as the Constable of France under King Charles VI. The elegant and refined attire worn by Jeanne in this portrait reflects the opulence and grandeur of the French court during the late Middle Ages. Her gown, adorned with intricate embroidery and rich fabrics, is reminiscent of the sumptuous textiles that were popular during this period. The voluminous sleeves and high neckline are characteristic of the fashionable styles of the time, while her headdress, adorned with pearls and a delicate veil, adds an air of sophistication and regality to her appearance. The meticulous attention to detail in this engraving is truly awe-inspiring, with each fold in Jeanne's gown and each thread in her headdress rendered with remarkable precision. The use of handcolouring further enhances the image, adding depth and vibrancy to the rich textures and intricate patterns. This portrait of Jeanne de Sancerre serves as a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the fashion and culture of the 14th century French court. With its intricate detail and stunning beauty, this engraving is a true masterpiece that continues to captivate and inspire viewers to this day.
