EDITORS COMMENTS
Marguerite de Navarre, Sister of King Francis I (1492-1549): A Regal Portrait in Ribbons and Jewels This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving, titled in error as "Marguerite de Valois," beautifully captures the enigmatic and sophisticated presence of Marguerite de Navarre, the younger sister of the renowned King Francis I of France. Born in 1492, Marguerite was a woman of remarkable intellect, literary prowess, and political acumen. Her fashionable attire in this portrait reflects her regal status and the opulence of the French court. Marguerite's elegant headpiece is adorned with an intricate arrangement of ribbons and gemstones, interspersed with pearls that cascade down her chestnut-brown hair. Her dress, made of rich velvet, features puffed and slashed sleeves, a tight bodice, and a ruff collar, all popular styles of the early 16th century. The front opening of her gown reveals an exquisitely embroidered petticoat, adding a delightful pop of colour and texture to the image. The portrait is a masterful reproduction of a painting in the editor's collection, skillfully rendered by Georges Jacques Gatine after an illustration by Louis Marie Lante. It is a captivating testament to the beauty, grace, and refinement of Marguerite de Navarre, a woman who left an indelible mark on the history of the French monarchy and the literary world.
