1698 Bishop Laon Mitre Vestments
EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print depicts Charles de Saint-Albin (1640-1704), a French prelate who served as the Bishop of Laon from 1676 until his death. Born into the noble House of Bouillon, Saint-Albin was also the Duke of Laon and a member of the French Academy. The ornate mitre and vestments worn by Saint-Albin in this image signify his high ecclesiastical rank. The intricate design of the mitre, adorned with gold and pearls, reflects the grandeur and opulence of the late 17th century. The rich fabric of the vestments, along with the cross and other ecclesiastical insignia, further emphasize Saint-Albin's position as a bishop and duke. The portrait captures the elegance and sophistication of the French nobility during this period, as well as the importance of the Catholic Church in French society. Saint-Albin's calm and contemplative expression adds a sense of reverence and piety to the image. This print, created in 1698, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and splendor of the French Catholic Church during the late Baroque era.
