EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to witness a momentous event - the marriage of Philippe Auguste, the illustrious King of France, and Isabelle of Hainault. The image is extracted from Ms. 149 t. 3 fol. 88, a medieval manuscript carefully preserved in the Bibliotheque Municipale in Boulogne-sur-Mer, France. In this enchanting scene captured by the French School during the 15th century, we are transported to a grand cathedral where an ornate ceremony is taking place. A bishop stands at the center, his regal presence commanding attention as he officiates over this sacred union. Surrounding him are elegantly dressed ladies-in-waiting who exude grace and poise. The bride and groom stand side by side under an exquisite canopy adorned with intricate details that reflect their noble status. Philippe Auguste's attire befits his royal stature while Isabelle radiates beauty and elegance in her wedding gown. Every element within this artwork tells a story - from the bishop's mitre symbolizing religious authority to the meticulous attention given to capturing every detail of this historical event. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we can't help but marvel at how it transports us through time and allows us to witness such significant moments in history firsthand. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and invites us to appreciate both artistry and historical narratives woven into each stroke on vellum.
