EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in history as Louis XII (1462-1515) and Anne of Brittany (1477-1514), the king and queen of France, engage in the ancient tradition of making alumone. The plate in faience, skillfully painted by Adrien Thibault (1844-1918), beautifully depicts this scene. Louis XII, known as the "Father of the People" was renowned for his generosity and compassion towards those less fortunate. In this image, we witness his charitable nature firsthand as he extends a helping hand to a pauper woman using crutches. Anne of Brittany, an influential queen known for her intelligence and strength, stands beside him with grace and elegance. The composition is rich with symbolism; it represents not only their royal status but also their commitment to alleviating poverty and promoting charity. The ceramic plate itself serves as a testament to the artistic talent of Thibault, capturing every intricate detail with precision. Photographer Kim Youngtae has masterfully captured this historical moment within the walls of Chateau de Blois in Blois. Through his lens, we are transported back to 15th-century France, where acts of kindness were celebrated amidst societal challenges. This photograph serves as a reminder that even during times of struggle and hardship, there is always room for compassion and generosity. It immortalizes two figures who left an indelible mark on French history while showcasing the beauty found within artistry and humanity alike.
