EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures the powerful and enigmatic figure of Philippe IV Le Bel, also known as "Philippe the Fair," king of France during the 14th century. Philippe IV was a ruthless and ambitious ruler who left a lasting impact on French history.
One of his most infamous actions was the suppression of the Knights Templar, a wealthy and influential medieval military order. Philippe IV accused them of heresy and other crimes, leading to their downfall in 1314.
