EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by an unknown artist from the 19th century depicts Denis of Portugal, also known as "the Farmer King" or Denis I of Portugal. The portrait showcases the multifaceted nature of this historical figure who reigned from 1261 to 1325. Denis I was not only a monarch but also a troubadour, earning him the title of "the King Troubadour". His love for poetry and music set him apart from other rulers of his time. Additionally, he is revered as "the Father of the Fatherland" highlighting his dedication to nurturing and protecting his beloved country. The image portrays Denis I in regal attire, exuding power and authority befitting a king. Yet, there is a sense of warmth and approachability in his expression that reflects his humble origins as a farmer. This juxtaposition symbolizes his commitment to bridging the gap between royalty and commoners. Furthermore, Denis I was known for being liberal-minded during an era characterized by conservatism. He implemented progressive policies that aimed to improve education, agriculture, and infrastructure within Portugal. Stefano Bianchetti's skillful use of color brings life to this historic portrayal while maintaining its authenticity with respect to the Middle Ages setting. This enchanting print serves as a testament to both the artistic talent behind it and the remarkable legacy left by Denis I in shaping Portuguese history.
