EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 17th-century print, we witness the momentous occasion of the birth of Henri IV, the future King of France, in the year 1553. The scene unfolds in the royal chambers of Jeanne d'Albret, Queen of Navarre, who sits regally on her bed, surrounded by an entourage of courtiers. The room is filled with an air of anticipation and excitement, as the queen's confidantes look on with expectant gazes. Yet, amidst the throng of courtiers, two figures stand out for their apparent indifference to the historic moment. The jester, clad in motley attire and a jaunty cap, leans against the wall, his expression unreadable as he looks off into the distance. The queen's loyal dog, at her feet, seems equally disinterested, its ears perked up but its eyes fixed on some distant point. The print, created in 1610, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of the French court during the reign of Jeanne d'Albret and her son, Henri IV. The queen, a formidable and intelligent ruler in her own right, had been a regent for her son since his birth due to his father's premature death. The jester, a common presence at royal courts, served to lighten the mood and entertain the nobility. And the dog, a loyal companion, no doubt shared in the joy and excitement of the momentous occasion. Despite the apparent indifference of the jester and the dog, the print captures the essence of the historical moment, offering a window into the past and a reminder of the complexities and intrigues of the French royal court.
