EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the regal presence of Clemence of Hungary (1293-1328), daughter of King Andrew III of Hungary, in her role as Queen Consort of King Louis X of France (1289-1316). Known as Louis X the Quarrelsome or Louis X the Hutin due to his contentious reign, this French monarch ascended to the throne in 1314 following the sudden death of his father, King Philip IV. Clemence's marriage to Louis X was arranged in 1305, and she bore him three children before his premature demise in 1316. The photograph, circa 19th century, depicts Clemence in an elegant and refined manner, adorned in the sumptuous attire befitting a queen of the time. Her intricately embroidered robe, adorned with pearls and precious stones, is a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the royal court. Her crown, adorned with fleur-de-lis and precious gems, sits atop her golden-blonde hair, further emphasizing her regal status. Clemence's expression is serene and composed, reflecting the inner strength and resilience required of a queen during the tumultuous 14th century. Despite the challenges she faced, including the death of her husband and the political instability of the French court, Clemence continued to serve as regent for her eldest son, John II, until he came of age. Her legacy as a strong and capable queen consort is an enduring testament to her leadership and determination. This photograph provides a glimpse into the rich history of French royalty, offering a window into the opulence and grandeur of the medieval court. The image of Clemence, poised and regal, is a reminder of the complex and fascinating history that lies within the annals of European monarchy.
