EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Suzanne de Bourbon, Countess of Forez: A Portrait in Stained Glass Suzanne de Bourbon, born in 1491, was the only daughter of Pierre II de Beaujeu and Anne of France. This exquisite handcoloured lithograph is an enchanting representation of Suzanne, based on a stained-glass window in the Abbaye de Savigny. The image is taken from the renowned collection 'Costumes Historiques de la France' by Paul Lacroix, published in Paris in 1852. Suzanne's elegance and refinement are captured in this intricately detailed print. Her richly embroidered gown, adorned with delicate floral motifs, is a testament to the opulence of the French Renaissance. The vibrant colors and intricate patterns of the stained glass are beautifully translated onto the page, creating an evocative and captivating image. The Countess of Forez was a significant figure in the French court during the early 16th century. Her lineage, as the daughter of Pierre II de Beaujeu, a powerful nobleman, and Anne of France, sister of King Louis XII, placed her at the heart of the French political scene. This portrait in stained glass serves as a reminder of her noble status and the rich cultural heritage of the time. The meticulous craftsmanship of the handcoloured lithograph brings the image to life, allowing us to appreciate the intricacies of Suzanne's attire and the artistry of the stained-glass window from which it was derived. This print offers a glimpse into the opulent world of the French Renaissance and the life of a remarkable woman, Suzanne de Bourbon, Countess of Forez.
