EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment from the 12th-century fresco of the Royal Cortege, also known as the "royal chase". The composition showcases King Henry II leading the procession, although he is absent in this particular detail. Following closely behind him is his wife Alienor d'Aquitaine (or Eleonore de Guyenne), who notably does not wear a crown, possibly due to her imprisonment in 1173. The cortege continues with their eldest son Henry the Younger, often referred to as Henry the Younger or the young king. His presence adds an air of youth and vitality to this regal scene. Accompanying them are their other two sons: Richard I of England, famously called Richard the Lionheart for his courage and bravery; and Geoffroy II Brittany (also known as Geoffroy Plantagenet) adorned in a coat of vair that symbolizes their noble status. This magnificent fresco can be found within Sainte Radegonde Chapel in Chinon, Indre-et-Loire, France. Its artist remains unknown but has left behind a remarkable piece of art that immortalizes this royal family's legacy. Thanks to Fine Art Finder's ePhoto Josse collection, we have access to this mesmerizing image that transports us back in time. As we gaze upon it, we cannot help but marvel at the intricate details and historical significance captured within its frame.
