King Louis XII Proclaimed Father of the People at The States-General of Tours on 14 May 1506
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment in history when King Louis XII was hailed as the "Father of the People". Painted by Jean Louis Bezard in 1835, this masterpiece measures an impressive 4x7.15 meters and is currently housed in the Château de Versailles, France. The title bestowed upon King Louis XII holds great significance as it symbolizes his efforts to alleviate the burden on commoners by reducing their taxes. His dedication to improving the lives of ordinary people earned him this revered position among his subjects. In this painting, we see King Louis XII standing before the States General of Tours on that fateful day in May 1506. His regal presence commands attention as he addresses his constituents with grace and authority. The artist's meticulous brushstrokes bring out every detail, from the intricate patterns adorning the king's garments to the expressions on each individual's face within the crowd. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment where a monarch embraced his role as protector and advocate for those who had long been marginalized. It serves as a testament to King Louis XII's legacy and reminds us of our shared responsibility towards creating a more equitable society even today.
