EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable historical moment, showcasing the unexpected encounter between Louis XI of France and his wife, Queen Charlotte de Savoie. Painted by Claude Jacquand in oil on canvas, this masterpiece depicts a scene where the King surprises the Queen while she instructs their young son, the Dauphin, against his will. Louis XI (1423-83), known as a powerful ruler of France, is portrayed with an air of authority and determination. His presence interrupts the private lesson between mother and child. The Queen's expression reveals surprise and concern as her husband intrudes upon this intimate moment. The young boy stands beside his mother, caught in the middle of conflicting instructions from both parents. This painting beautifully captures not only royal figures but also explores familial dynamics within French royalty during that era. With its intricate details and masterful brushstrokes, this artwork offers us a glimpse into history while highlighting themes such as power struggles within relationships and parental influence on future rulers. Preserved in a private collection and now available for viewing through eBonhams in London, UK; it serves as a testament to Jacquand's artistic talent and ability to immortalize significant moments from our past.
