EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le voeu du Faisan" takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in a grand banquet scene. The image is an illustration for "Histoire de France en Cent Tableaux" by Paul Lehugeur, published around 1880. The banquet room is filled with a bustling crowd of people, creating an atmosphere of celebration and festivity. The tables are adorned with sumptuous buffets, tempting guests to indulge in a lavish meal. It's a sight that transports us to a time when dining was not just about sustenance but also about extravagant displays of wealth and power. In the center of the composition stands Charles VII, known as Charles the Well Served or Charles the Victorious. He was King of France during this period and his presence commands attention amidst the crowded room. This historical context adds depth to the image, reminding us of France's rich history. The intricate details captured through engraving bring life to every element within the scene - from the ornate decorations on walls and ceilings to each individual person present at this grand event. The use of black and white enhances its timeless quality while allowing viewers to focus on every nuance depicted. This remarkable print from Bridgeman Images invites us into an era long gone but forever preserved through art. It serves as both a visual feast for our eyes and a window into French history that continues to captivate audiences today.
