EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Henri IV addressing a merchant 'I would like to know the price of a liard', 1896" captures a moment in history that symbolizes the disconnect between heads of state and the concerns of everyday people. In this illustration by Job, pseudonym for Onfray de Breville, Jacques, we see Henry IV, King of France (1589-1610), engaging with a merchant during a walk. The scene depicts Henry IV approaching the merchant and asking about the price of a liard, which represents an insignificant amount of money. This interaction serves as a powerful metaphor for how distant rulers can be from the economic struggles faced by ordinary citizens. The image highlights the stark contrast between those in power and those trying to make ends meet. Set against a backdrop of bustling streets and numerous individuals going about their daily lives, this illustration provides insight into society during both the 16th century when Henry IV reigned and the 19th century when this artwork was created. It offers glimpses into fashion trends such as women wearing frilled collars known as fraise collerettes. Overall, this print invites contemplation on themes such as social hierarchy, economics, and political representation. It reminds us that even centuries ago, there were disparities between rulers and their subjects – disparities that continue to exist today.
