EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of John II's grand entrance into Paris in July 1360. The image, dating back to the 14th century, is an illustration from the renowned Grandes Chroniques de France, housed in the prestigious Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris. John II, also known as John the Good, reigned as king of France from 1350 to 1364. In this vividly colored artwork, we witness his majestic arrival on horseback accompanied by a splendid procession. The monarch proudly wears his crown adorned with fleur-de-lis symbols, representing French royalty. The scene showcases the medieval splendor and pageantry associated with royal entrances during that era. As John II rides through the streets of Paris, he is surrounded by men and animals alike - a symbol of power and authority. This visual masterpiece offers us a glimpse into life during the Middle Ages and provides valuable insight into historical events. The artist skillfully portrays every detail with precision and artistry typical of this period. From intricate costumes to regal horses, each element contributes to creating an atmosphere befitting a sovereign's arrival. This remarkable print serves as both a testament to French history and an exquisite example of artistic expression from centuries past. It allows us to immerse ourselves in a time long gone while appreciating its cultural significance today.
