EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a page from Ms 159, fol 3r of The Primer of Claude of France. Created by the Master of Antoine de Roche, this exquisite piece measures 26x17.5 cm and is housed in the prestigious Fitzwilliam Museum at the University of Cambridge in the UK. The image depicts the Life of Saint Claudius of Besancon, also known as Saint Claude. A revered figure in ecclesiastical history, he was a priest, monk, abbot, and bishop who lived during the late 6th to early 7th century. Dressed in ornate robes befitting his religious status, Saint Claude's depiction exudes an air of formality and reverence. Claude of France herself was an influential figure during her time as queen consort and duchess regnant. As the eldest daughter of Louis XII and Anne of Brittany, she held significant political power and was married to Francis I. This artwork serves as a testament to her connection with religion through its inclusion in her personal primer. The intricate illumination and calligraphy on parchment add depth to this visually stunning composition. Through this photograph print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, viewers can appreciate both the artistic mastery behind it and gain insight into historical figures such as Saint Claudius and Claude of France.
