Antoine Duprat (1463-1535), a prominent figure in French history, is depicted in this elegant print. Born in Tours, France, Duprat rose to become one of the most influential men of his time, serving various roles in the Church and the French monarchy. Duprat's ecclesiastical career began when he was appointed Bishop of Poitiers in 1505. He later became the Archbishop of Bourges in 1517 and was elevated to the rank of Cardinal in 1518 by Pope Leo X. Simultaneously, Duprat's political career flourished. He served as Chancellor of France from 1516 to 1534, a position that made him the chief advisor to King Francis I. Additionally, he held the titles of Chancellor of Brittany and Chancellor of Milan. The image of Cardinal Duprat showcases his grandeur and power. He is dressed in the rich robes of a cardinal, adorned with the cross of the Order of the King, a prestigious title bestowed upon him by King Francis I. The print also features the emblems of his various titles and territories, including the fleur-de-lis of France, the lion of Brittany, and the cross of Milan. Duprat's influence extended beyond France, as he played a significant role in the diplomacy between France and the Holy Roman Empire during the Italian Wars. His political acumen and ecclesiastical power made him a formidable figure in 16th-century Europe. This print serves as a testament to his remarkable accomplishments and the enduring impact he left on French history.
