EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grand entrance of Henry II, King of France, in Rouen on January 10th, 1550. The city is adorned with flags and decorations as it organizes a magnificent popular feast to honor both King Henry II and Queen Catherine de Medici. Elegantly illustrated by Louis de Merval, this etching showcases the scene from a manuscript found in the Municipal Library of Rouen. The image portrays a vibrant display of patriotism and regality. The king's armor gleams under the illuminating sunlight while he rides triumphantly in his chariot accompanied by an entourage of soldiers and musicians playing trumpets. Symbolizing power and authority, the royal couple stands tall amidst their subjects who cheerfully celebrate their presence. The architecture surrounding them reflects the rich history and heritage of France, with intricate details adorning every building. Lily flowers, a symbol associated with French monarchy, can be seen throughout the procession along with various animals that add an element of liveliness to the scene. This photograph not only captures a significant moment in history but also highlights the splendor and opulence that characterized 16th-century France. It serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Henry II and Catherine de Medici within French culture.
