EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a pivotal moment in history - the meeting between Louis XI and Charles Le Temeraire at Peronne in the mid-15th century. The tension is palpable as the two powerful figures engage in what appears to be an intense interview, with guards standing by ready to intervene if necessary.
The intricate details of this scene, from the elaborate clothing worn by both men to the expressions on their faces, transport us back to a time of political intrigue and power struggles. It is said that Louis XI was arrested and detained by Charles Le Temeraire out of grudge, only to be released later amidst a case of birds jacasseurs (chattering birds).
Henri Martin's depiction of this historical event in his L'Histoire de France Populaire comes alive in this 19th-century engraving. The craftsmanship and attention to detail are truly remarkable, making it a valuable piece for any history enthusiast or art collector.
As we gaze upon this print, we can almost hear the whispers of courtiers and feel the weight of centuries-old grievances hanging heavy in the air. It serves as a reminder that even great rulers are not immune to betrayal and political machinations.
