EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts Philippe de Commynes (circa 1447-1511), a prominent French statesman and chronicler of the late Middle Ages. Commynes, also spelled Comynes or Comynes de Grenier, served as a trusted advisor to several French monarchs, including King Louis XI and King Charles VIII. His most famous work, "Memoires," is an invaluable historical account of the French court during this period. Commynes' life and career are shrouded in mystery, and much of what is known about him comes from his own writings. He was born into a noble Flemish family and was educated in the arts and humanities. After serving in various diplomatic roles, Commynes rose to prominence under Louis XI, who appointed him as his Grand Master of Horse and later as his chief advisor. Commynes played a key role in French politics during this tumultuous period, navigating alliances, intrigues, and conflicts both at home and abroad. The print captures Commynes in the prime of his life, dressed in the elegant attire of a French nobleman. His piercing gaze and stern expression convey a sense of intelligence, determination, and authority. The intricate details of his clothing, from the rich fabrics to the ornate jewelry, reflect the opulence and grandeur of the French court. Commynes' "Memoires" provide a unique and fascinating glimpse into the political and social world of late medieval France. They offer insights into the lives of monarchs, nobles, and commoners, as well as the complex web of alliances and power struggles that shaped European history. This print serves as a reminder of Commynes' enduring legacy as a historian and a statesman, and a testament to the rich and complex history of France during the late Middle Ages.
