EDITORS COMMENTS
La soumission des Casselois, 10 janvier 1430" is a captivating oil painting created by the renowned French artist Francis Tattegrain in 1887. This masterpiece depicts a significant historical event that took place in the 15th century, specifically on January 10, 1430, in the marshes of Saint-Omer, France. The painting portrays a humbling moment in history as the people of Cassel, a town in northern France, throw themselves at the mercy of Duke Philip the Good of Burgundy. The Duke, depicted as a noble and commanding figure, stands tall on horseback, surrounded by his soldiers, as the men of Cassel approach him with outstretched hands and downcast eyes. The scene exudes a sense of submission and surrender, as the people plead for mercy and protection from their conqueror. The painting is a testament to the rich heritage and history of France, specifically during the Burgundian period. The use of oil paint on canvas adds depth and texture to the image, bringing the scene to life and allowing the viewer to almost hear the hushed whispers of the men as they approach the Duke. The color palette is muted, with earthy tones dominating the image, reflecting the somber and serious nature of the scene. This painting is a valuable addition to the collections of the Petit Palais in Paris, one of the city's most prestigious museums. It is a reminder of the important role that art plays in preserving and sharing our cultural heritage, allowing future generations to learn about and appreciate the events and figures that shaped our past. Francis Tattegrain, also known as François Tattegrain, was a prolific French painter of the 19th century. His works often focused on historical and mythological themes, showcasing his exceptional skill and talent as an artist. "La soumission des Casselois, 10 janvier 1430" is a prime example of his ability to capture the essence of a historical moment and bring it to life through his art.
