EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving from 1928, we witness a remarkable encounter between two eras. Gaston Doumergue, the President of the French Republic during the early 20th century, extends his hand in greeting to a knight from the Middle Ages at a medieval feast in Carcassonne. The image captures an extraordinary moment where history and modernity converge. As Doumergue stands tall in his formal attire, adorned with symbols of power and authority, he shows courtesy and respect towards the armored knight before him. The contrast between their appearances is striking – one representing contemporary society and its values, while the other embodies chivalry and tradition. The setting of Carcassonne adds to the enchantment of this scene. Known for its well-preserved medieval fortifications, it serves as a perfect backdrop for such an event. The streets are filled with onlookers who eagerly observe this unique encounter between past and present. This engraving was featured in "Le petit journal illustre" a renowned publication at that time. Its inclusion showcases not only its artistic value but also highlights how significant this moment was deemed by society. Today, this print resides within a private collection but continues to captivate viewers with its depiction of history coming alive through artistry. It reminds us that even though time may separate us from those who came before us, there will always be moments when their stories intertwine with ours - creating connections that transcend centuries.
