EDITORS COMMENTS
A Procession," a captivating 1610 drawing by Ambroise Dubois, offers an intriguing glimpse into the grandeur and majesty of the French monarchy during the seventeenth century. Dubois masterfully captures the essence of a royal procession, with a crowd of men, dressed in rich robes and hats, following a chariot bearing an emperor or sovereign. The chariot, adorned with ornate decorations and banners, is drawn by powerful horses, their muscles taut with the effort of carrying their royal burden. The drawing, executed in black chalk with touches of white chalk on cream laid paper, is a stunning example of Dubois' skill as a draftsman. The contrast between the black and white creates a striking visual effect, highlighting the intricacies of the clothing, the textures of the horses' coats, and the folds of the chariot's decorations. The use of white chalk to add detail to the faces and hands of the men in the procession adds a sense of depth and realism to the image. The location of the procession is not clear, but the drawing evokes a sense of awe and reverence, as the men bow and gesture in deference to their monarch. The drawing is a testament to the power and prestige of the French monarchy during this period, and a reminder of the rich artistic heritage that has been passed down through the centuries. Ambroise Dubois was a prominent French artist of the seventeenth century, known for his studies of figures, animals, and landscapes. This drawing, "A Procession," is a prime example of his ability to capture the essence of a scene with deft skill and masterful technique. It is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
