EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled "Who made thee King?" takes us back to 19th century France, offering a glimpse into the rich historical tapestry of the country. Created by an anonymous French School artist, this print is part of a private collection and showcases the profound influence of M Guizot's book "A Popular History of France" published in 1885. The image transports us to a pivotal moment in French history, where power dynamics were being questioned. The central figure depicted is Hugh Capet, Count of Perigord, who challenges the legitimacy of his kingship with a piercing gaze. Surrounding him are various characters representing different facets of French society - from nobles to commoners - all questioning his right to rule. This engraving serves as a powerful reminder that authority and sovereignty are not inherent but rather bestowed upon individuals by those they govern. It prompts viewers to reflect on the complexities and struggles faced by leaders throughout history as they grapple with questions surrounding their rightful place on the throne. Through its intricate details and masterful execution, this artwork captures both the essence of French culture and its deep-rooted connection to its past. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded that understanding our history allows us to better comprehend our present and shape our future.
