EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history as St Remy, the Bishop of Rheims, pleads with King Clovis for the return of a sacred vase stolen by the Franks during the pillage of Soissons. The scene is set in the 15th century court of Burgundy, and the costumes worn by both figures transport us back to that era. The intricate details depicted in this miniature on manuscript from "History of the Emperors" are truly remarkable. The artist's skillful hand brings to life every fold and texture of their clothing, allowing us to appreciate the fashion trends prevalent during medieval times. As we gaze upon this black and white sketch, we can almost hear St Remy's impassioned plea echoing through time. His determination is palpable as he beseeches King Clovis for justice and restitution. Meanwhile, King Clovis appears deep in thought, torn between his desire to maintain power over his people and his duty to uphold moral principles. This image serves as a poignant reminder of how historical artifacts hold immense cultural significance. It reminds us that even centuries later, these relics continue to shape our understanding of past civilizations. Ken Welsh's expertly captured photograph evokes a sense of awe and curiosity within us all. It invites us to delve deeper into this fascinating period in French history - an age filled with saints and kings, battles and conquests - where every detail tells its own story.
