EDITORS COMMENTS
Balthasar Moncornet's captivating engraving on laid paper, titled "Christine of France," showcases the enchanting likeness of Christine de Luxembourg, also known as Christine of France. This evocative black and white portrait, housed in the prestigious National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., transports us back to the 15th century, where the Duchess of Savoy held significant influence over the French court. Christine's direct gaze, captured by Moncornet's masterful hand, invites us into her world, revealing a woman of strength and intelligence. Her regal bearing and elegant attire are a testament to her noble status, while the subtle contrast between the white and black tones adds depth and texture to the image. Balthasar Moncornet, a renowned artist of the time, expertly employed the techniques of the day to create this stunning work. The intricate details of Christine's clothing, the delicate folds of her veil, and the subtle shading of her features all serve to bring this historical figure to life. As we stand before this portrait, we are transported to a time long past, where the Duchess of Savoy held sway over the French court. Moncornet's masterful use of black and white tones invites us to contemplate the heritage and history that this remarkable woman represents. The National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. is proud to display this significant work, which serves as a reminder of the rich artistic and historical heritage that continues to inspire and intrigue us today.
