EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white lithograph, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous event in French history. The print depicts the legendary Pierre du Terrail, also known as Chevalier de Bayard, bestowing knighthood upon Francis I. The scene is filled with grandeur and symbolism. Dressed in his magnificent suit of armor, Bayard stands tall and proud as he prepares to perform the sacred ritual of dubbing. Kneeling before him is Francis I, the ruler of France at that time. His posture reflects both humility and anticipation as he awaits this great honor. Bayard's reputation precedes him - he is hailed as the knight without fear or reproach. His victory at Marignano has elevated his status even further, making him an embodiment of chivalry and valor. This engraving by Albert Robida beautifully captures the essence of this historic ceremony. The attention to detail brings every element to life - from the intricate designs on their armors to the expressions on their faces. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but feel a sense of awe for these two figures who have left an indelible mark on French history. It serves as a reminder of a bygone era when honor, courage, and nobility were held in high regard. This print not only preserves a significant moment but also invites us to reflect upon our own values and aspirations.
