EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous scene from history, depicting "Le roi achetant la Joconde" or "The King Buying the Mona Lisa". Created by the talented artist Albert Robida, this colour lithograph showcases his incredible attention to detail and mastery of capturing historical events. The artwork serves as an illustration for the book "Francois I, Le Roi Chevalier" written by A. Robida and G. Gustave Toudouze in 1909. It portrays a significant event in French culture when King Francis I acquired Leonardo da Vinci's iconic masterpiece, the Mona Lisa. The image transports us back to Renaissance-era France, where we witness the king engaging in commerce with a dealer to purchase this renowned work of art. The painting's provenance and its value as an artistic treasure are evident through their interaction. Robida skillfully brings together elements of trade, artistry, and royalty into one frame. His meticulous attention to detail allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of this historic transaction but also provides insight into the cultural significance surrounding artists and their works during that time. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, we are reminded of how art has always played a crucial role in shaping societies throughout history. This piece serves as a testament to both Leonardo da Vinci's genius and King Francis I's appreciation for fine arts – forever immortalized through Robida's exceptional craftsmanship captured on paper.
