EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a pivotal moment in the tumultuous history of Arras, a town in northern France, during the Civil War of 1413. In the photograph, the Provost of Arras, a local dignitary, is seen presenting the keys of his town to King Charles VI, as a symbol of its submission to the monarch amidst the ongoing conflict. The civil war, which began in 1411, was a result of a power struggle between the Armagnacs and the Burgundians, two rival factions vying for control of the French throne. The Provost's act of submission was a significant event in the war, as Arras was a key strategic location and had been held by the Burgundians since 1412. By surrendering the keys to King Charles VI, the people of Arras were declaring their allegiance to the monarch and distancing themselves from the Burgundian faction. This act of submission was not only a political statement but also a desperate plea for protection from the violence and destruction of war. The photograph, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back to a time of chaos and uncertainty in French history. The image of the Provost handing over the keys to the king serves as a poignant reminder of the power dynamics at play during this period and the lengths to which people would go to secure their safety and loyalty to their ruler. The historical significance of this event is further underscored by the solemn expressions of both the Provost and King Charles VI, adding to the sense of gravity and importance of the moment.
