EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the engraving of Louis V le Faineant, who was proclaimed King of France in 986 under the protection of Hugues Capet, the future king. Created by Ambroise Tardieu in 1825, this artwork beautifully captures a significant moment in French history. Louis V le Faineant, also known as Louis the Do-Nothing or Louis the Sluggard, ruled from approximately 967 to 987. Despite his title and reputation for being an ineffective ruler, he played a crucial role in shaping the future of France through his alliance with Hugues Capet. In this engraving, Tardieu skillfully depicts Louis V with intricate details that bring him to life on paper. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke and line, capturing both the physical features and regal presence of this historical figure. The composition highlights not only Louis V but also emphasizes Hugues Capet's support and protection. This collaboration between two influential figures laid the foundation for what would become one of Europe's most powerful dynasties -the Capetian dynasty. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry by Stefano Bianchetti from Fine Art Finder, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment that shaped French history forever.
