EDITORS COMMENTS
Francois I, roi de France: A Regal Portrait of Monarchial Grandeur Francois I, born in 1494, reigned as King of France from 1515 until his death in 1547. This portrait, drawn and lithographed by Leopold Massard after an original in Roger de Gaignières portfolios from Le Bibliophile Jacob aka Paul Lacroix's Costumes Historiques de la France, provides a glimpse into the regal splendor of the French monarchy during the Renaissance period. The image portrays Francois I in a grandiose setting, adorned in the opulence befitting a king. He wears a hose, a form of close-fitting breeches, and a surtout, a long, outer garment, both of which are richly decorated with intricate patterns and fabrics. The king's attire is hand-colored, adding vibrancy and depth to the intricate details of the lithograph. Francois I is depicted with an air of confidence and authority, his gaze steady and unwavering. His regal attire, combined with the ornate surroundings, emphasizes his power and status. The portrait not only serves as a testament to the grandeur of the French monarchy during the Renaissance but also as a visual representation of the artistic and cultural influences that shaped the era. This exquisite lithograph, drawn by Leopold Massard and based on an original in the Costumes Historiques de la France collection, offers a captivating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the opulent world of Francois I, roi de France.
