The Capetian Dynasty, a prominent ruling family in medieval France, witnessed significant events and left behind a rich legacy. In the Seventh Crusade, King Louis IX found himself taken prisoner at the Battle of Fariskur on 6 April 1250. This historical moment is vividly captured in "Misteri del Vaticano" by Franco Mistrali (1866). Another artistic representation of King Louis IX can be seen in Andrea della Robbia's glazed tile masterpiece titled "St Louis and the angels. " The image portrays the king surrounded by celestial beings. Known as Saint-Louis, King Louis IX was renowned for his sense of justice. A depiction shows him rendering justice under an oak tree in Vincennes. This act symbolizes his commitment to fair governance during his reign from 1214 to 1270. Additionally, an educational fresco called "Education of Saint Louis" showcases his devotion to learning and intellectual pursuits. During the Hundred Years War, another member of the Capetian Dynasty played a crucial role. Philippe VI sought asylum at Chateau de Broye (1346), highlighting both political turmoil and strategic decisions made during this conflict. The Battle of Bouvines (1214) also holds significance as it demonstrates Philippe Auguste's determination to protect his crown with bravery and dignity. Artistic representations further immortalize members of this dynasty. A roundel depicts St Louis holding a sceptre over his right shoulder while another illustration portrays Louis VI le Gros at the Battle of Bremule (1119), emphasizing their strength and resilience. Crusades were pivotal moments for many Capetian rulers; one such event features Louis VII battling at Mount Kadmus strategically. Moreover, the vow made by Louis IX upon birth is remembered through various historical records. Lastly, Philip IV's equestrian statue stands tall as a testament to his rule during the Middle Ages when he governed France.
