EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Charles VI of France, the Well-beloved: A Regal Portrait from the Middle Ages" Charles VI of France, also known as "Charles the Well-beloved," was a significant figure in French history, ruling as King of France from 1380 until his death in 1422. This vertical, upright engraving, showcasing the monarch in black and white, offers a captivating glimpse into the life of this medieval king from the Valois dynasty. Born in 1368, Charles VI was the son of King John II of France and Joan of Bourbon. His reign was marked by periods of mental instability, which led to the involvement of various regents and advisors in ruling the kingdom. Despite these challenges, Charles VI is remembered for his patronage of the arts and his efforts to strengthen the monarchy. In this portrait, Charles VI is depicted wearing the attire typical of the medieval period. He wears a long, flowing robe adorned with intricate patterns and a fur-trimmed mantle, signifying his regal status. The engraving's meticulous detailing brings out the textures of the fabric and the king's facial features, revealing a man of noble bearing and dignity. The portrait's title, "the Well-beloved," reflects the affection and respect the people held for their monarch, despite the challenges of his reign. This engraving serves as a testament to the enduring power of the monarchy in medieval France and the captivating allure of its history. This evocative portrait, with its intricate detailing and historical significance, offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of a pivotal figure in French history. The portrait's vertical orientation and the stark contrast between black and white further emphasize the regal and timeless nature of the image.
