EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in French history, depicting the rising against Charles III the Simple by the lords led by Robert I. The engraving, created by Jean Michel Moreau the Younger in the 18th century, showcases an intense scene of political turmoil and revolt. The image portrays a group of influential lords confronting King Charles III at Soissons in 920. They are reproaching him for his choice of Haganon, a simple knight, as minister and favorite. In their demand for Haganon's exclusion from court, they symbolically break straw strands and throw them to the ground as a sign of their refusal to trade with him. At the forefront of this rebellion stands Robert I, who would later become King of France in 922. His leadership and determination are evident as he leads these disgruntled lords against Charles III's rule. This engraving not only highlights an important historical event but also provides insight into medieval politics and power struggles within France during that time period. It serves as a reminder that even kings were subject to scrutiny and opposition from their subjects. Stefano Bianchetti's expert reproduction brings this significant moment back to life, allowing viewers to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance.
