EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative oval portrait captures the scholarly intensity of Jacques Cujas (1522-1590), a renowned French jurist and historian of the late 16th century. The image, produced around 1590, showcases Cujas in the prime of his intellectual career, with a fur-lined robe and a long, flowing beard that frames his thoughtful expression. Born in Larmessin, in the Midi region of France, Cujas rose to prominence as a legal scholar and historian, making significant contributions to the fields of Roman law and legal history. His most famous work, "Institutes of the Civil Law," was a comprehensive commentary on Justinian's Digest and became a standard text for legal studies in Europe for centuries. Cujas's meticulous approach to scholarship is reflected in the image, as he is depicted holding a pair of shears, likely used for trimming and annotating his texts. The presence of the shears may also symbolize the careful pruning and refining of legal precedents and historical sources that were essential elements of his work. Despite his scholarly pursuits, Cujas was also deeply involved in the political and religious turmoil of his time. He served as a counselor to several French monarchs, including Henry III and Henry IV, and played a role in the negotiations that led to the Edict of Nantes, which granted religious freedom to Huguenots in France. This portrait offers a glimpse into the life of a brilliant and influential figure in French history, whose legacy continues to shape the study of law and history to this day.
