EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Maximilien de Bethune, the Duke of Sully, in all his regal glory. The portrait, dating back to 1898, is a remarkable piece from the publication Les Francais Illustres by Gustave Demoulin. Maximilien de Bethune appears as a distinguished figure with his bald head and well-groomed beard. His attire reflects the fashion of the 19th century, complete with an elegant ruff collar that adds a touch of grandeur to his appearance. Despite his elderly age, there is a vibrant energy emanating from him as he smiles warmly at the viewer. As one of France's notable monarchs and military strategists during the 17th century, Maximilien de Bethune played a crucial role in shaping French history. A devout Protestant himself, he was known for promoting religious tolerance amidst times of conflict between Catholics and Protestants. The engraving beautifully captures both his royal status and commitment to Christianity. It serves as a testament to his significant contributions not only as a soldier but also as an influential statesman who worked tirelessly for peace within his country. This print offers us an intriguing glimpse into the past—a window into an era where men like Maximilien de Bethune shaped nations through their unwavering dedication and leadership. It stands as a reminder of our rich historical heritage and invites us to reflect on those who have left indelible marks on our collective memory.
