This print showcases Charles V, also known as the Wise, King of France in 1789. Charles V ascended to the throne in 1364 and his reign proved pivotal for France during the Hundred Years War. The war had previously resulted in significant territorial losses to England under the Treaty of Bretigny in 1360; however, Charles V's strategic prowess led to a remarkable recovery of much of this lost land. The image captures the essence of this influential ruler from both the 14th and 18th centuries. With a regal crown adorning his head, Charles V exudes authority and wisdom. This engraving from the Historica Graphica Collection beautifully portrays him as a symbol of power amidst turbulent times. Charles V's legacy is further emphasized by his title "the Wise" which speaks volumes about his astute decision-making skills and ability to navigate through challenging circumstances. His leadership played a crucial role in restoring France's fortunes during this tumultuous era. As we gaze upon this historical portrait, we are transported back to an age where monarchy reigned supreme and individuals like Charles V shaped nations with their vision and determination. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos, great leaders can emerge who have the capacity to restore hope and prosperity for their people.
