This print captures the regal presence of Hugues I Capet, the renowned King of France from 941 to 996. The image is a colour engraving taken from Le Plutarque Francais by E. Mennechet in 1835 and showcases the French School's artistic finesse. Hugues I Capet stands tall and proud, adorned in his majestic medieval costume. His powerful aura emanates through his armor, flag, helmet, and crown that symbolize his authority as a member of the esteemed Capetian dynasty. Seated on a grand throne, he exudes an air of confidence befitting a ruler.
