EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the distinguished visage of Jean Baptiste Budes, Comte de Guebriant (1602-1643), a renowned French military commander who rose to the esteemed rank of marechal de France. Born into a noble family, Guebriant began his military career under the tutelage of his uncle, Marshal Anne de Montmorency. He gained recognition for his leadership and strategic prowess during King Louis XIII's campaign in Germany, where he successfully defended the city of Heidelberg against the Austrian forces. The image portrays Guebriant in his prime, with a stern yet resolute expression that belies the complexities of his military career. His military accoutrements, including the star of a marechal de France and the collar of the Order of Saint Michel, adorn his chest, signifying his high rank and accomplishments. The intricate lace collar and ruff around his neck, along with his meticulously groomed beard, reflect the opulence and elegance of the French court during this period. Guebriant's military exploits continued throughout his career, including his successful defense of La Rochelle during the Fronde rebellion. However, his involvement in the political intrigues of the French court ultimately led to his downfall, and he was executed in 1643. This intriguing print offers a glimpse into the life of a complex and influential figure in French military history, whose legacy continues to be studied and admired by scholars and history enthusiasts alike.
