EDITORS COMMENTS
Valet to the Hounds: A Glimpse into Francis I's Hunting World". This print transports us back in time to the era of King Francis I, where hunting was not just a sport but a symbol of power and prestige. The image showcases a valet to the hounds, adorned with his lance and hunting horn, accompanied by three loyal hunting dogs. The attention to detail in this handcolored illustration by Edmond Lechevallier-Chevignard is truly remarkable. Every brushstroke brings life to the scene, capturing the essence of this noble pursuit. From the intricate tapestry owned by de Saint-Ferreol, we witness an exquisite display of artistry and craftsmanship. Lechevallier-Chevignard collaborated with lithographers A. Didier, L. Flameng, and F. Laguillermie to create this masterpiece for Georges Duplessis' renowned book on historical costumes from different centuries. Published in 1867 as a continuation of earlier works on medieval attire, it aimed to preserve and celebrate France's rich cultural heritage. Notably talented as both an artist and interior designer for public buildings and churches, Lechevallier-Chevignard's expertise shines through in every aspect of this composition. His attention to period-specific details transports us effortlessly into Francis I's courtly world. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' collection provided by Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of how art can capture history's grandeur while preserving its beauty for generations to come.
