EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving of Cardinal Richelieu, a prominent figure in French history. The American School of the 19th century skillfully crafted this artwork, which is now part of a private collection. The engraving was created as an illustration for the renowned Library of Universal History by Moses Coit Tyler and published by Peale & Hill in approximately 1897. Cardinal Richelieu, known for his influential role as Chief Minister to King Louis XIII, left an indelible mark on France during the 17th century. This digitally cleaned image allows us to appreciate the intricate details and artistic mastery that went into capturing his likeness. The cardinal's commanding presence is evident through his regal attire and stern expression. His piercing gaze seems to penetrate through time itself, revealing both intelligence and determination. As one examines this print closely, it becomes apparent that every line etched into the paper tells a story – a testament to the craftsmanship involved in creating such engravings. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of art history with utmost care and precision. Through their dedication to preserving cultural heritage, they have made it possible for us to admire Cardinal Richelieu's portrait today. This photograph serves as a reminder not only of his significance but also of how art can transcend time and connect us with historical figures who shaped our world centuries ago.
