EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the grandeur and political significance of the wedding ceremony between King Charles I of England and Henrietta Maria, sister of King Louis XIII of France, which took place on May 11, 1625, in the hallowed halls of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. The union of the young monarchs was arranged by the powerful Cardinal Richelieu, who stands prominently in the foreground, officiating the ceremony. The marriage was met with disapproval from the British people, who saw it as a threat to their national interests, given Henrietta Maria's strong Catholic faith and her close ties to the French court. The intricate details of the print reveal the opulence of the occasion, with the bride and groom dressed in their finest attire, surrounded by an array of noblemen and ladies, all adorned in rich fabrics and jewels. The grandeur of the setting is further emphasized by the ornate decorations and the magnificent architecture of Notre Dame, which looms majestically in the background. Despite the initial opposition, the marriage of Charles I and Henrietta Maria proved to be a love match, and the couple went on to have ten children together. However, the political ramifications of the union would have far-reaching consequences, fueling tensions between England and France for decades to come.
