EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Arrest of Charles II the Bad, King of Navarre, in 1356" takes us back to a pivotal moment in history. Created by an unknown French artist and housed at the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, this print captures the dramatic scene with remarkable detail. Intriguingly, we see Charles II (1332-1387), also known as "Charles the Bad" being apprehended. As King of Navarre from 1349 to 1387 and Count of Evreux from 1343 to 1387, his reign was marked by controversy and political turmoil. This arresting image immortalizes one such event that shaped his legacy. The composition exudes tension as armed guards surround Charles II while he stands defiantly before them. His regal attire contrasts starkly with their stern expressions and weapons drawn. The viewer is left wondering about the circumstances leading up to this fateful moment. As we delve into history through this engraving, it becomes clear that Charles II's rule was far from peaceful or prosperous. Known for his cunning tactics and ruthless ambition, he earned himself the moniker "Charles the Bad". This artwork serves as a visual reminder of his complex character and troubled reign. Through its intricate details and historical significance, this print offers a glimpse into a turbulent period in French royalty. It invites us to reflect on power struggles within medieval kingdoms while marveling at the skillful artistry preserved over centuries
