EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Portraits of Saint Louis and Saint John the Baptist" a reproduction after a fragment of an altarpiece attributed to Van Eyck. The artwork is featured in "Les Chroniqueurs de l'histoire de France depuis les origines au 16eme siècle" by Mme de Witt, published in Paris in 1886. The French School from the 19th century beautifully captures these iconic figures, depicting Saint Louis and Saint John the Baptist with remarkable detail and precision. The chromolithography technique used enhances the vibrancy and richness of colors, making this print truly mesmerizing. Saint Louis, also known as Louis IX of France, was a devout Christian monarch who ruled during the 13th century. His portrait exudes regality and piety, reflecting his reputation as a just ruler deeply committed to his faith. Beside him stands Saint John the Baptist, depicted with his characteristic attributes such as a staff topped with a cross and wearing animal skins. As one of Christianity's most revered figures, he symbolizes repentance and spiritual awakening. This extraordinary piece transports us back to medieval France, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic heritage and religious devotion. Preserved within Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, this photograph by Leonard de Selva ensures that these masterpieces continue to inspire awe even centuries later.
