EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the Court of the Ladies of Queen Anne of Brittany, a poignant scene inspired by a 16th-century miniature. The image depicts a group of elegantly dressed French ladies-in-waiting in a medieval setting, with their queen at the center. Queen Anne herself is shown weeping, her sorrow evident as she writes a letter while reclining on an ornate bed in her bedchamber. The historical context behind this emotional portrayal becomes clear: Queen Anne's husband is absent during the Italian war. Her tears symbolize not only her personal longing for his return but also reflect the anguish experienced by many women left behind as their loved ones fought battles afar. The attention to detail and exquisite headdresses worn by these noblewomen transport us back to an era characterized by opulence and refinement. This artwork showcases both the artistic skill of its creator and serves as a testament to the enduring power of visual storytelling. Preserved within a private collection, this lithograph from Le Moyen Age et La Renaissance by Paul Lacroix (1806-84) was published in 1847. Its timeless beauty continues to captivate viewers today, reminding us that even centuries-old images can evoke strong emotions and connect us with our shared human experiences.
