EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and significance of "The Coronation of Marie de Medici" by Peter Paul Rubens. The painting, housed in the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia, depicts the momentous occasion when Marie de Medici was crowned queen of France. In this baroque masterpiece, Rubens skillfully portrays the opulence and splendor of the event. The composition is filled with vibrant colors and intricate details that bring to life the coronation ceremony. We see priests adorned in rich vestments conducting the sacred rituals while a ghostly figure hovers above - perhaps symbolizing divine intervention or ancestral spirits blessing Marie's ascent to power. Marie de Medici herself stands at the center of attention, resplendent in her regal attire and wearing a magnificent crown. Surrounding her are courtiers and dignitaries who bear witness to this historic moment. Through his masterful brushstrokes, Rubens not only captures a significant event but also tells a story steeped in religious symbolism and political intrigue. This print allows us to appreciate every nuance of Ruben's artistry as well as delve into French history during the 17th century. It serves as a testament to both Flemish artistry and Marie de Medici's enduring legacy as queen consort of France from 1600 until 1610.
