EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Henri II Clement, Seigneur of Metz and Marshal of France, who tragically passed away in 1265. The image captures a significant moment as he receives the oriflamme from Saint Denis, the battle standard of the King of France. Adorned in a suit of chainmail and a tunic embellished with a white cross, Henri II Clement stands proudly, his spurs glinting under the light. Clasping his sword firmly, he exudes an air of strength and determination. The scene depicted in this print is taken from a stained glass window located in Notre-Dame de Chartres. Through meticulous handcoloring and lithography techniques by Villain after an illustration by Horace de Viel-Castel, this historical moment comes to life with vibrant hues. This artwork belongs to "Collection des costumes, armes et meubles pour servir à l'histoire de la France" (Collection of costumes, weapons and furniture to be used in the history of France) published by Treuttel & Wurtz and Bossange in 1829. It serves as both an exquisite piece for art enthusiasts and a valuable resource for those interested in French fashion during medieval times. With its rich historical context and artistic beauty, this print transports viewers back to ancient times when knights like Henri II Clement played pivotal roles on the battlefield while upholding their noble duties as Marshals of France.
