EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history, the Ms 9242 Hainaut Chronicles featuring Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy. The image captures the essence of the 15th century French School's artistry and attention to detail. In this scene, we witness an extraordinary gathering at the Bibliotheque Royale de Belgique in Brussels. Philip the Good, a prominent figure in European politics during his time, is depicted with great dignity and authority. He stands tall and proud as he receives a translation of the Chronicles by Jean Vauquelin. Beside him stands Charles the Bold, portrayed as a child but already displaying signs of nobility and potential greatness. The vellum manuscript is beautifully adorned with later coloration that adds depth to its intricate designs. The tapestry backdrop further enhances this grandeur setting while symbolizing wealth and power associated with aristocracy. The Order of the Golden Fleece can be seen prominently displayed on Philip's attire, signifying his prestigious membership. Every aspect of this composition has been meticulously crafted - from their elaborate costumes down to their long pointed shoes known as poulaines. This image truly transports us back in time to an era where courtiers played significant roles in shaping society. As we admire this stunning artwork captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder, let us appreciate not only its visual beauty but also its historical significance that continues to captivate audiences today.
