The captivating print titled "Ms 149 t. 1 fol. 108v How the Belgians Elect a Duke" takes us back to the medieval era, offering a glimpse into the fascinating process of selecting and crowning a duke in Belgium. Created by an unknown French artist from the 15th century, this vellum artwork is part of the Histoire des Nobles Princes de Hainaut by Jacques de Guise. Intricately detailed and richly colored, this Gothic-style illustration depicts a momentous event in Belgian history - the election of a new duke. The composition showcases various figures engaged in this significant task, with individuals gathered around an ornate throne awaiting their turn to cast their votes. The scene exudes an aura of anticipation and grandeur as each participant carefully considers their choice for future leadership. This print offers valuable insights into how power was transferred during medieval times, shedding light on political processes that have shaped nations throughout history. Preserved within Boulogne-sur-Mer's Municipal Library in France, this remarkable piece serves as both historical documentation and artistic masterpiece. Its intricate details transport viewers back centuries ago, allowing them to witness firsthand how Belgians instituted everyone's involvement in electing their dukes. As we admire this extraordinary work of art today, let it serve as a reminder of our ancestors' democratic practices and inspire us to appreciate the significance behind every electoral process that shapes our present-day societies.
