EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the solemn beauty of the Gisants of King Philip III and Philip IV of France, resting in eternal repose within the Tombs of the Basilica of Saint Denis. The intricate details carved into these 13th-century tombs are a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the French School. King Philip III, known as Philip the Hardi, ruled France from 1245 until his death in 1285. His effigy lies behind that of his son, Philip IV, also known as Philip the Beloved or Philip the Beautiful, who reigned from 1268 to 1314. The juxtaposition of their statues symbolizes both lineage and succession. The atmosphere surrounding these royal gisants is one filled with reverence and history. As we gaze upon this image captured by Photo Josse, we are transported back to a time when kings held immense power and influence over their kingdoms. The medium age aesthetic adds an air of mystique to this photograph. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, these medieval monarchs continue to captivate our imagination. As we admire this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection, let us reflect on how art has preserved not only physical appearances but also stories that have shaped nations throughout history. This print invites us to delve into a world long gone yet still present through its artistic representation.
