"Louis XII: A Royal Legacy in Tapestry and Marriage" Step into the world of Louis XII, King of France, as we unravel the captivating story behind his reign. Delve into the intricate tapestries that depict two significant marriages that shaped his rule. The first fragment showcases the union between Louis XII and Jeanne, daughter of Louis XI, a momentous event from 1500 captured in wool and silk by Brussels artisans. Another tapestry fragment transports us to another pivotal marriage - that with Anne of Brittany. Crafted with meticulous detail using wool and silk, this piece highlights the importance of alliances in medieval Europe. Within Louis XII's court thrived an array of influential figures. Among them was Mary Tudor, whose presence bridged England and France during this era. Her influence on politics cannot be underestimated. As we explore further into Louis XII's courtly life, we encounter a gentleman adorned in exquisite attire - a testament to the opulence surrounding him. This glimpse offers insight into the fashion trends prevalent during his reign. The financial affairs were entrusted to Guillaume de Montmorency, Lord of Chantilly - a trusted confidant responsible for managing royal finances under Louis XII's watchful eye. His role as General added stability to France's economic landscape. Gui de Rochefort emerges as yet another key figure within this vibrant court scene; serving as Chancellor of France during these transformative years marked by political intrigue and cultural advancements. Louis XII himself is immortalized through various artistic mediums - from oil paintings capturing his regal countenance to engravings depicting poignant moments such as standing beside King Charles VIII's coffin upon assuming power. One engraving portrays an iconic moment when he made his grand entrance into Genes at the commencement du seizieme siecle (the beginning of the sixteenth century), symbolizing new beginnings for both him and his kingdom.
