EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking historical print captures the moment of the baptism of young Louis XIII, who would later become King of France in 1610 following the assassination of his father, King Henri IV. The image, dated 1606, depicts the five-year-old Louis XIII being held by his mother, Marie de Medicis, as he receives the sacrament of baptism from a priest. The solemn occasion took place in the royal chapel of the Louvre Palace in Paris, France. Henri IV, a popular and charismatic monarch, had come to power in 1589 after a long period of civil war. His assassination in May 1610, at the hands of a fanatical Dominican monk, came as a shock to the kingdom. Louis XIII, who was only nine years old at the time, was too young to rule effectively, and Marie de Medicis served as regent until her son came of age. This print provides a glimpse into the rich history of France during a pivotal moment in time. The intricate details of the royal robes, the somber expressions on the faces of the attendees, and the ornate surroundings of the chapel all contribute to the sense of history and grandeur. The image is a poignant reminder of the unpredictable nature of power and the importance of family in times of crisis. The print is a valuable historical document, offering insight into the lives of the French monarchy during the early seventeenth century. It is a testament to the enduring power of history to captivate and inspire, and a reminder of the importance of preserving the past for future generations.
