EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Blanche, the daughter of Louis IX, in all her regal splendor. Despite her short life span from 1240 to 1243, this image depicts her as a mature young woman of twenty years old. Her hair is elegantly tied up with a golden band and veil, adding an air of sophistication to her appearance. Blanche's attire reflects her noble lineage and status within the royal family. She dons a full heavy tunic adorned with the royal coat of arms - gold fleurs de lys on a blue field - symbolizing power and authority. Over this magnificent garment, she wears a delicate pink robe that adds a touch of femininity to her ensemble. Interestingly, this engraving was created by Leopold Massard based on an original figure found on Blanche's tomb in Royaumont Abbey. The attention to detail is evident in every stroke of the handcolored copperplate. Although Blanche tragically passed away at such a tender age, this portrait immortalizes her beauty and grace for generations to come. It serves as both a historical artifact and an artistic masterpiece that allows us to glimpse into the opulent world of French royalty during that era. This remarkable image is part of "French Costumes from King Clovis to Our Days" published by Massard and Mifliez in Paris in 1834. Its inclusion among other significant figures throughout history further emphasizes its importance as an invaluable piece of cultural heritage captured through time.
