EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the regal presence of Henry IV of France, dating back to the late 16th or early 17th century. The image showcases the first monarch from the House of Bourbon, who ruled over France from 1589 until his assassination in 1610 by Francois Ravaillac. Despite its age, this engraving has retained its historical significance and offers a glimpse into a pivotal period in French history. Henry IV is depicted on horseback, dressed in elaborate armor that symbolizes his power and authority. His majestic stature is further emphasized by the rearing horse beneath him. The king's confident gaze suggests both strength and wisdom as he gazes into the distance. The portrait also provides insight into the fashion trends of that era, with Henry IV wearing traditional clothing befitting his royal status. His hat adds an elegant touch to his ensemble while highlighting his position as head of state. This image comes from "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" a renowned publication by Edmund Ollier that delves into various aspects of modern history. Its inclusion in this volume speaks to its importance within historical literature. As we admire this remarkable piece, we are reminded not only of Henry IV's tragic fate but also of his significant contributions to France during his reign. This print serves as a testament to both the man himself and the enduring legacy he left behind for future generations to appreciate.
