EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable moment in history - the Coronation of Philippe III, also known as Philippe le Hardi. The image is taken from the Grandes Chroniques de France, a prestigious manuscript dating back to the 15th century. Philippe III, son of Saint Louis and Marguerite de Provence, ascends to the throne with great dignity and regality. The scene unfolds on vellum, capturing every intricate detail of this significant event. As he sits upon his majestic throne, adorned in royal robes and wearing a magnificent crown, Philippe exudes power and authority. The illumination surrounding him adds an ethereal glow to the portrait. A bishop stands beside him, symbolizing divine approval for his reign. With a mitre atop his head and holding a crozier in hand, he blesses Philippe's coronation with solemnity. This artwork not only captures an important historical moment but also serves as a testament to the artistic brilliance of French illuminators during that era. Every stroke on this illuminated manuscript reflects their dedication and skill. As we gaze upon this awe-inspiring print from Bridgeman Images' collection at eBibliotheque Nationale Paris, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the grandeur of French royalty. It reminds us of our rich cultural heritage while offering us an opportunity to marvel at the craftsmanship that has stood the test of time.
