EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a fascinating moment from the history of France in the Middle Ages. In the image, we see the resourceful inhabitants of Dinant creating a scarecrow adorned with the arms of the Count of Charolais, also known as Charles Le Temeraire. This act was in response to his storming of their city on 25 August 1466. The illustration, created by Jacques Marie Gaston Onfray de Breville (known as JOB), transports us back to this significant event in 1905. The artwork showcases JOB's talent for capturing historical scenes and bringing them to life through his intricate details and vivid colors. The humor and irony behind this scene are palpable. The people of Dinant used this scarecrow as a form of protest and mockery towards Charles Le Temeraire, symbolizing their defiance against his actions. It serves as a reminder that even during tumultuous times, human resilience can manifest itself in unexpected ways. This photograph is part of a private collection and offers us an intriguing glimpse into medieval France's social dynamics. It highlights how ordinary individuals found creative ways to express themselves amidst political turmoil. Overall, this image invites viewers to reflect on both the power dynamics at play during medieval times and humanity's ability to find solace in humor even during challenging periods throughout history.
