Created by Raphael Jacquemin in 1869, this artwork showcases miniatures from both the University of Turin and the Mazarine Library that were previously unpublished. The image portrays a group of regal figures adorned in exquisite costumes, each one representing a distinct social character within the Burgundian court. The attention to detail in their clothing is remarkable, highlighting the intricate designs and luxurious fabrics favored during this period. As we delve into this historical scene, we are transported to an era where monarchs held immense power and influence over European society. The crowns atop their heads symbolize their royal status, while also serving as reminders of their responsibilities as rulers.
