EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Catherine de Medici, the influential Queen of France and wife of King Henry II. The image captures her regal presence as she adorns herself in a stunning ensemble. Her attire includes a jeweled cap, accentuating her noble status, while a delicate lace ruff collar frames her face with elegance. Notably, she wears high shoulder pads that add grandeur to her appearance. The focal point of this portrait lies in the intricate details of Catherine's clothing. Her lace sleeves are open to reveal an embroidered corset and petticoat beneath, showcasing the opulence and craftsmanship associated with royalty during this era. This attention to detail is further enhanced by the handcoloured copperplate engraving technique used by Georges Jacques Gatine. The artist has skillfully captured Catherine's beauty and grace through his illustration based on an original miniature from the editor's collection. The overall effect is one of sophistication and refinement befitting a queen. This enchanting depiction allows us to glimpse into the world of 16th-century French nobility and appreciate the fashion trends prevalent during that time period. It serves as a testament to Catherine de Medici's influence not only as Queen but also as a style icon who left an indelible mark on history.
