EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the prominent figures of Louis XIII, Anne of Austria, and Cardinal Richelieu. The trio is depicted attending the production of Mirame, a play written by J. Desmarest de Saint-Sorlin at the Palais Cardinal (now Palais Royal) in Paris in 1641. The oil on canvas artwork by Jean de Saint-Igny beautifully portrays the interior scene with an array of spectators eagerly watching the performance on stage. The audience's attention is drawn to Louis XIII and Anne of Austria as they sit side by side, engrossed in the unfolding drama before them. Meanwhile, Cardinal Richelieu stands nearby, his presence commanding respect and authority. The painting not only showcases their royal status but also highlights their appreciation for arts and culture during this period. It provides us with a glimpse into the opulent world of French nobility during the 17th century. Preserved within Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France, this remarkable piece serves as a testament to both historical events and artistic talent.
