EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Session of the Grands Jours d Auvergne, 26th September 1665" takes us back to a significant moment in French history. The image depicts a parliamentary meeting held in Clermont-Ferrand, where justice is being re-established under the watchful eye of Monsieur le President M. Potier de Novion. The scene is filled with nobles and magistrates dressed in their elegant robes, symbolizing the authority and power they hold within the legal system. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported to a time when Louis XIV's reign was at its peak. The composition captures the intensity and importance of this judicial gathering. Each figure seems deeply engaged in discussions or debates that will shape the course of justice for years to come. The attention to detail by the anonymous French School artist allows us to immerse ourselves fully into this historical moment. With its rich historical context and artistic finesse, this engraving serves as an invaluable record of France's legal system during the 17th century. It reminds us of how crucial these sessions were for upholding justice and maintaining order within society. As we admire this print from Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its significance as a testament to our enduring quest for fairness and equality before the law.
