EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithography print from the 19th century takes us back in time to one of the most significant historical episodes in Paris. The artwork depicts Clovis, the first king of France, choosing Paris as his permanent residence in 508 AD. Clovis, a legendary figure in French history, played a crucial role in establishing the Merovingian dynasty and unifying various Frankish tribes under his rule. This momentous decision marked a turning point for both Clovis and Paris itself. The artist behind this masterpiece remains unknown, but their skillful use of chromolithography brings vibrancy and life to this historical scene. Every detail is meticulously captured, transporting viewers to the bustling streets of medieval Paris. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost feel ourselves stepping into Clovis' shoes as he surveys his new kingdom. The architecture showcases the grandeur and beauty that would eventually make Paris an iconic city throughout history. This artwork serves as a reminder of how cities evolve over time and how influential figures like Clovis shape their destinies. It also highlights the importance of preserving these historical moments through art so that future generations can appreciate and learn from them. Stefano Bianchetti's restoration work on this piece ensures its longevity for years to come. As it now resides in a private collection, it continues to inspire awe and fascination among those fortunate enough to behold it.
