EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating hand-coloured print captures a pivotal moment in history as Griffin, the youngest son of Charles Martel, receives advice from his mother to declare war against his two brothers. Painted by the French School in the 15th century, this miniature from the Chronicle of France is an exquisite example of early printing. Intricately detailed, the image showcases a city wall backdrop with soldiers on horseback preparing for battle. Griffin sits atop his majestic steed while his mother stands beside him, offering guidance and encouragement. The tension is palpable as they plot their attack against their siblings. This historical scene symbolizes power struggles within royal families during medieval times. Charles Martel's decision to divide his realm between Carloman and Pippin left nothing for Griffin, sparking resentment and fueling ambitions for revenge. The artist skillfully depicts various animals throughout the composition - horses galloping with determination and strength, emphasizing both military might and noble lineage. The presence of these creatures adds depth to the narrative while showcasing wildlife in a time when humans relied heavily on them for transportation and agriculture. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back in time to witness a crucial moment that would shape dynasties and alter destinies forever. It serves as a reminder of how familial bonds can be shattered by ambition and greed but also highlights the enduring spirit of resilience found within individuals like Griffin who dared to challenge fate itself.
