EDITORS COMMENTS
Francois Villon, the legendary 15th-century French poet, is depicted in this evocative print as he enters a bustling Paris tavern, surrounded by the company of two women, la Grosse Margot and Marion l'Idole. The year is 1463, and Villon, known for his satirical and often bawdy verses, is fully immersed in the lively atmosphere of the tavern. Villon's left arm is wrapped around the waist of la Grosse Margot, a notorious tavern keeper and courtesan, while his right arm cradles the delicate figure of Marion l'Idole, a beautiful and enigmatic woman who was the subject of one of his most famous poems, "Ballade de Marion." The poet's mischievous grin and twinkling eyes suggest that he is in his element, surrounded by the sights, sounds, and sensations of the tavern. The print, created in the late 19th or early 20th century, captures the essence of Villon's legendary reputation as a wanderer, a poet, and a lover. The year 1431 is inscribed at the bottom of the image, marking the birth year of the poet, and the phrase "Tout aux tavernes et aux filles!" (To all the taverns and girls!) encircles the border, emphasizing Villon's legendary love of tavern life and the fairer sex. This print offers a glimpse into the world of Francois Villon, a man who lived and loved with passion and abandon, leaving behind a rich literary legacy that continues to inspire and intrigue scholars and readers alike.
