EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Monsieur Credit" is a powerful piece of French Royalist propaganda, paying tribute to Henri Charles Ferdinand Marie Dieudonne de France, Duc de Bordeaux and Comte de Chambord. Created by the French School in the 19th century, this lithograph now resides in the Musee Carnavalet at Musee de la Ville de Paris. Henri Charles Ferdinand was an influential figure as he was considered the last heir of the eldest Bourbon branch and claimed his right to ascend to the throne of France. Born posthumously to Charles-Ferdinand de France, Duc de Berry and Marie-Caroline de Bourbon-Sicile, he was also a grandson of King Charles X. In this portrait, we see a young man exuding confidence and authority. Dressed in a striking uniform adorned with epaulettes, Monsieur Credit embodies regality and nobility. His piercing gaze captures our attention while his dignified posture commands respect. As we delve into this image further, it becomes evident that Monsieur Credit's presence symbolizes hope for those who supported him as their rightful leader. This artwork serves as a reminder of an era when political loyalty ran deep within French society. While admiring this portrait, let us appreciate its historical significance and acknowledge Henri Charles Ferdinand's unwavering determination to claim what he believed was rightfully his - the throne of France.
