EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, depicting King Louis VI and the people of Paris seeking protection from Sainte Genevieve against the evil of Ardent. Painted by Theodore Maillot in 1885, this masterpiece beautifully portrays the solemnity and devotion of the city's population during the 12th century. In this painting, we witness King Louis VI, known as "the Gros" leading his people alongside eveque Etienne to implore Sainte Genevieve for safeguarding against ergotism. The atmosphere is filled with both fear and hope as they gather at the Pantheon in Paris, a symbol of their faith and unity. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every brushstroke brings life to this historical event. Maillot skillfully captures not only the physical features but also the emotions etched on each face present. It serves as a reminder of how deeply rooted religion was within society during that time. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back centuries ago when mass prayer gatherings were held to seek divine intervention. This image speaks volumes about human resilience and our innate need for protection against adversity. The significance of Sainte Genevieve as patron saint resonates throughout this piece – her presence instills comfort and reassurance among those who fervently pray for deliverance from Ardent's malevolence. Overall, Maillot's painting offers us a glimpse into an important chapter in Parisian history while reminding us of humanity's unwavering belief in higher powers during times of crisis.
