EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the regal presence of Francis I, King of France (1494-1547), and his sister Marguerite of Angouleme, Queen of Navarre (1492-1549). Painted by Alexandre Evariste Fragonard, this masterpiece is housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. The scene depicted in the painting showcases a momentous occasion at Fontainebleau Castle. It portrays Francis I and Marguerite receiving exquisite paintings and sculptures brought back from Italy by Francesco Primaticcio in 1532. The siblings stand together with an air of elegance and authority as they admire these artistic treasures. Francis I's majestic attire reflects his royal status, while Marguerite exudes grace and sophistication. Their fashionable costumes are indicative of the 16th century French court fashion. A loyal dog stands faithfully beside them, symbolizing their close bond as brother and sister. The grandeur of Fontainebleau Castle serves as a backdrop to this historical event. Priests can be seen ascending the stairs nearby, adding a touch of religious significance to the scene. The castle itself represents power and prestige associated with royalty during that era. This painting not only showcases art but also highlights familial ties within nobility. It encapsulates both masculinity through Francis I's commanding presence and femininity through Marguerite's poise. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this timeless artwork for all to appreciate its historical significance and artistic brilliance.
