EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Cardinal de Richelieu, created by the talented artist Jean Morin in the 17th century. The portrait captures the essence of this influential figure, known for his political prowess and religious devotion. Cardinal de Richelieu, also known as Armand Jean du Plessis, was a prominent French statesman who served as chief minister to King Louis XIII. His strong influence on French politics during this era earned him a place in history as one of France's most significant figures. In this etching, Morin skillfully portrays Cardinal de Richelieu with an air of authority and wisdom. The intricate details bring out the cardinal's distinctive features and regal attire, emphasizing his status within both Catholicism and French society.
