EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, taken from the esteemed 1867 publication "Costumes historiques des XVIe, XVIIe et XVIIIe siecles" (Historical costumes of the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries) by Georges Duplessis, showcases a significant encounter between Infanta Isabella Clara Eugenia of Spain (1566-1633) and Gaspard de Coligny, Seigneur de Chatillon, Marechal de France (1519-1572). The Infanta, dressed in an elegant gown adorned with intricate lace and a high ruff collar, gazes intently at the French military leader. Coligny, clad in a scarlet tabard emblazoned with his coat of arms - a noble eagle - and a suit of armor, lies on the ground with his helmet and gloves nearby. Isabella Clara Eugenia, the Archduchess of Austria, was the daughter of King Philip II of Spain and his fourth wife, Anna of Austria. She was raised in the Spanish court and later became the governor of the Spanish Netherlands. This meeting with Coligny, a prominent French military commander, likely took place during one of her diplomatic missions or visits to the French court. The handcolored illustration, produced by E. Lechevallier-Chevignard and lithographed by A. Didier, L. Flameng, and F. Laguillermie, masterfully captures the opulence and grandeur of the period. The intricate details of the Infanta's dress, the richness of Coligny's armor, and the subtle nuances of their expressions all contribute to a vivid and engaging portrayal of a pivotal moment in European history.
