EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print depicts Jean de la Valette, the esteemed Grand Master of the Knights of the Order of Malta. Painted by Francois Xavier Dupre in oil on canvas, this artwork is housed at the Château de Versailles in France. Jean de la Valette, born in 1494 and passing away in 1568, was a remarkable figure renowned for his leadership and bravery. As the Grand Master of the Hospitallers of St. John of Jerusalem, he played a pivotal role during the Ottoman siege on Malta in 1565. In this portrait, we see a distinguished man with a commanding presence. His beard adds to his aura of wisdom and strength while his armor symbolizes his dedication to protecting Christian ideals against their Turkish enemies. The Maltese cross prominently displayed on his chest serves as an emblematic reminder of the military order he led with unwavering courage. Notably, La Valette's heroic efforts during the four-month-long siege forced the Turks to retreat home defeated. Today, Valletta – Malta's capital city – stands as a testament to Jean de la Valette's legacy and accomplishments. Named after him due to his instrumental role in defending against foreign invaders, Valletta remains an enduring symbol of resilience and victory. This print captures not only an exceptional leader but also commemorates a significant historical event that shaped European history forever.
