EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting engraving by Jacques Callot captures a pivotal moment in French history: the siege of Paris during the Eighth War of Religion, also known as the War of the Three Henrys (1585-1598). In March 1594, Paris opened its doors to Henry of Bourbon, who had been recognized as King Henry IV on the condition that he convert to Catholicism. The city's surrender marked the end of this long and devastating conflict. The image portrays Henry of Bourbon (1553-1610) in the midst of the siege, surrounded by his soldiers and the ruins of the city. The engraving's horizontal format, rich colors, and vibrant daylight create a sense of depth and drama. The exterior scene, filled with the sounds and sights of militarism, showcases the military might of the time. The Eighth War of Religion was a series of religious and political conflicts between the Catholic League, led by Henry of Guise, and the Huguenots, or Protestants, led by Henry of Navarre, who later became King Henry IV. The war was marked by brutal battles and sieges, as well as widespread destruction and suffering. This powerful and evocative engraving offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of religious strife and military might. The image serves as a reminder of the complex history of France and the profound impact of religious and political conflicts on its people.
