EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases Louis IX of France, also known as Saint Louis, who reigned from 1214 to 1270. The illustration is taken from "Le Plutarque Francais" by Edmond Mennechet, a renowned work published in 1836. Created by the French School in the 19th century, this color engraving beautifully captures the essence of this influential king. Louis IX appears regal and dignified in his royal attire. Adorned with a crown and holding a sword, he exudes authority and strength. His armor and buckler symbolize his role as both a knight and military leader during the medieval era. The artist Stefano Bianchetti has skillfully depicted every detail of Louis IX's appearance, emphasizing his noble features and resolute expression. This artwork transports us back to the Middle Ages when chivalry was revered. Louis IX's legacy extends beyond his military prowess; he was also known for promoting justice and religious piety throughout his reign. As one of only two French kings canonized as saints, he left an indelible mark on history. This historical portrait serves as a reminder of Louis IX's significant contributions to France during the Middle Ages. It offers us an opportunity to appreciate not only his physical attributes but also his enduring impact on society at that time.
