EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases Hugues Capet, the Duke and later King of the Franks during the 10th century. The image is taken from "Le Plutarque francais" a publication edited by Mennechet in the mid-19th century. Displayed at Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France, this engraving captures the essence of Hugues Capet's regal presence. Hugues Capet was a significant figure in French history as he founded the Capetian dynasty that ruled over France for nearly eight centuries. This portrait highlights his authority and power with its intricate details and masterful execution. The artist behind this masterpiece, Leonard de Selva, has skillfully captured every nuance of Hugues' expression, revealing both strength and wisdom. His piercing gaze seems to penetrate through time itself, leaving viewers captivated by his enigmatic persona. As we admire this historic artwork today, it serves as a window into an era long gone but not forgotten. It reminds us of the rich tapestry of French history and how individuals like Hugues Capet shaped its destiny. This print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic talent involved but also offers a glimpse into one man's journey from Duke to King - an extraordinary feat that forever altered the course of France's monarchy. Through this photograph print from Fine Art Finder, we can now bring home a piece of history and pay homage to one of France's most influential rulers –
