EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving showcases Elisabeth of Valois, the daughter of King Henry II of France. The 19th-century French School print, now part of a private collection, beautifully captures the elegance and grace of this historical figure. Elisabeth was married to King Philip II of Spain in 1559, making her an important link between two powerful European nations. Her portrait is depicted here as part of the "Costumes des Femmes Francaises du XII to XVIII siecle" series by Charles Tallandier in 1900. The illustration was printed by Charles Wittmann and hand-coloured by Nervet. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life the fashion and style prevalent during the 16th century. Elisabeth's dress exudes regality with its elaborate design and exquisite fabric. This engraving not only serves as a visual representation of a princess from centuries ago but also provides insight into the cultural exchange between France and Spain during that period. It speaks volumes about European history, highlighting connections forged through royal marriages. With this print, we are transported back in time to witness the beauty and grandeur associated with royalty in both France and Spain. It is a testament to how art can preserve history for generations to come.
