EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of dark intrigue and revenge in the royal court of France during the Middle Ages. The image depicts Lord Robert III of Artois, a powerful figure known for his involvement in witchcraft and black magic, casting a spell on a wax doll bearing the likeness of Jean de Valois, son of King Philip VI.
In this scene from 1333, we see Robert III using voodoo-like techniques to manipulate the fate of his enemies through supernatural means. The intricate details of the engraving bring to life the sinister atmosphere surrounding this act of occult science.
The historical significance of this artwork is further emphasized by its inclusion in "History-Populaire-de-France" by Lahure, published in 1866. It serves as a reminder of the complex beliefs and practices that existed within medieval society, where curses and spiritualism played a role in shaping political rivalries and personal vendettas.
As we gaze upon this mesmerizing portrayal of witchcraft and black magic, we are transported back in time to an era where fear and superstition held sway over even the most powerful individuals. The image invites us to ponder the mysteries that lie beyond our understanding, hidden within the shadows of history.
