Louis XI, roi de France, was a complex and enigmatic figure in French history. Known for his cunning and shrewdness, he ruled from 1461 to 1483. Jean Morin's portrayal captures the essence of this intriguing monarch. In Quentin Durward and the Disguised Louis XI, we catch a glimpse of the king's ability to blend into different roles effortlessly. His talent for deception is further highlighted in Tamisier's depiction of Louis visiting Cardinal Balue in his iron cage. This chilling image showcases the lengths to which Louis would go to maintain control over his enemies. However, not all aspects of Louis' reign were dark and sinister. Mary, Duchess of Burgundy pleads with the people of Ghent on behalf of her father's councillors who had been in correspondence with King Louis XI. This moment reveals a softer side to him as he navigates delicate political situations. Yet, nightmares haunted Louis throughout his rule as depicted in various artworks such as colour lithos illustrating the horrors carried out during his reign. These visions serve as a reminder that power often comes at a cost. Louis' negotiation skills are showcased when he engages with Flemish rebels in an engraving from 1480. His ability to navigate treacherous waters demonstrates why he was considered one of France's most formidable rulers. The streets of Paris were not immune to hardship during this time either; vagabonds roamed freely as shown in another colourful litho capturing their presence amidst bustling city life. One cannot forget Cardinal Balue imprisoned within an iron cage under the watchful eye of King Louis XI himself - yet another example showcasing both fearlessness and ruthlessness that defined this ruler. Margaret Austria being delivered into King Louis' guardianship highlights how alliances were formed through strategic marriages during this era – politics always played its part alongside military might.
