EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph is a reproduction of an illustration from the "Roman de La Rose," a medieval text written between the 13th and 15th centuries. The illustration depicts the Louvre Castle of Philip III, which was built by King Philip II of France in the 14th century on the right bank of the River Seine. The castle was an integral part of the city walls around Paris and later stood as a medieval fortification before its demolition to make way for the expanded Louvre Palace. The illustration is taken from a Haarlem manuscript, now housed in the British Museum, and was reproduced between 1915 and 1925 by American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston. Johnston's photograph is a reproduction of an illumination from the manuscript, which features intricate details and a sense of grandeur that is characteristic of medieval art. The image shows the Louvre Castle in all its glory, with its towering walls, crenellations, and arched windows. The castle is surrounded by a lush garden, with trees and foliage adding to the serene and idyllic setting. The lantern slide, which is likely how this image was originally intended to be viewed, captures the essence of the medieval castle and its rich history. The "Roman de La Rose" is a significant work of medieval literature, and this reproduction of an illustration from the text serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of medieval art and history. Frances Benjamin Johnston's photograph is a valuable addition to the visual record of this period, providing a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the beauty and complexity of medieval architecture and art.
