EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the grand entrance of Queen Marie de Medici into London on October 29, 1637. Marie de Medici, a Florentine noblewoman, was the mother of King Louis XIII of France and the wife of King Henry IV. Her arrival in London was a significant event, as she was coming to England to negotiate a marriage alliance between her daughter, Henrietta Maria, and the future King Charles I of England. The scene unfolds on Cheapside, nearly opposite Wood Street, a bustling commercial area in London. The print captures the excitement and anticipation of the crowd as they gather to catch a glimpse of the Queen. Marie de Medici is depicted in her regal attire, seated in a richly decorated carriage, her face expressionless but for a hint of a smile. Her retinue follows behind her, including attendants and guards, all dressed in the finest clothing of the day. The architecture of the buildings lining the street adds to the grandeur of the scene. The intricate details of the facades, with their ornate carvings and decorative elements, reflect the wealth and prosperity of the city. The print also offers a glimpse into the daily life of Londoners during this period, with people going about their business, children playing, and vendors selling their wares. This historical print is a testament to the rich and complex history of England and Europe during the early modern period. It offers a window into the past, allowing us to imagine the sights, sounds, and sensations of London in the seventeenth century. The print also highlights the importance of diplomacy and alliances in shaping the political landscape of Europe, as well as the role of women in shaping the course of history.
