EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures Jean Papirius Masson (1544-1611), a prominent French historian and antiquarian, in the latter years of his life. Masson is depicted wearing the fashionable attire of the late 16th century, including a ruff collar and a skull cap, which was a common head covering for scholars and intellectuals during that period. The oval-shaped image adds to the sense of intimacy and personal connection, inviting the viewer to engage with the subject on a more profound level. Born in Toulouse, Masson began his career as a lawyer before turning to history and antiquities. He is best known for his extensive research on the history of the Franks, the Germanic people who founded the Merovingian and Carolingian dynasties in France. Masson's most notable works include "Histoire des Francs" and "Antiquitates Galliae," which were groundbreaking studies that helped to establish the discipline of French history. Masson's contributions to scholarship were significant, as he was one of the first historians to use primary sources extensively in his research. He also played a crucial role in the development of the Bibliothèque Royale in Paris, which later became the Bibliothèque Nationale de France. Despite his scholarly achievements, Masson's life was not without controversy. He was involved in a bitter feud with the historian Jacques-Auguste de Thou, and his work was criticized by some of his contemporaries for its focus on the Frankish past and neglect of the classical tradition. Nevertheless, Masson's legacy as a pioneering French historian endures, and his works continue to be studied and admired by scholars today.
