EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a facsimile of a 15th-century manuscript by Jean Fouquet, depicting the verdict on Jean, Duke of Alencon. Accused of conspiring with the English against the French, this historical moment is brought to life in vivid color lithography. The image transports us back to medieval times, where treachery and betrayal were met with swift justice. In this scene, we witness the solemn court proceedings as magistrates deliberate over Jean's fate. Surrounded by members of royalty and influential figures such as Charles VII and Jean de Dunois, tension fills the air. The accused duke stands before them all, his future hanging in the balance. The intricate details captured in this artwork allow us to delve into European history during the Valois era. We are reminded of France's tumultuous past and its constant struggle for power within Europe. King Charles VII emerges as a victorious ruler who seeks justice for his kingdom. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from a private collection, we are transported through time to an epoch filled with political intrigue and royal machinations. It serves as a potent reminder that even those born into privilege can be ensnared by plots and schemes. This photograph not only captures an important historical event but also invites us to reflect on human nature itself – our capacity for both loyalty and deceit – reminding us that history has much to teach us about our present-day world.
