EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a fascinating moment from the Early Modern Era, depicting the Reconstruction of a Village and Brazilian Dance for Henry II and Catherine de Medici during his triumphal entry into Rouen on October 1, 1550. The scene takes place in Haute-Normandie, France, specifically in the Seine-Maritime region, and is housed in the Municipal Library of Rouen (Bibliothèque Municipale). Henry II, King of France from 1547 to 1559, and his wife Catherine de Medici, an influential Italian noblewoman, are prominently featured in the image. The triumphal entry was an important event in the political and social calendar, marking the monarch's arrival in a new city and demonstrating his power and authority. The village in the background of the engraving has been reconstructed for the occasion, with colorful houses and a lively market scene. In the foreground, a group of Brazilian dancers perform, likely brought to Europe by Catherine de Medici, who was known for her patronage of the arts and her interest in exotic cultures. The dancers wear vibrant costumes and move in sync, adding an air of celebration to the event. The image is rendered in beautiful detail, with the sunlight filtering through the trees and casting long shadows on the ground. The panoramic view, taken from an exterior perspective, offers a bird's-eye perspective of the scene, allowing the viewer to take in the entirety of the moment. This engraving is a testament to the rich cultural exchange that took place during the Renaissance period, as well as the grandeur and splendor of the European monarchy.
