EDITORS COMMENTS
Charles the Bold, also known as Charles le Temeraire (the Bold) and Charles, Count of Charolais, Duke of Burgundy (1433-1477), is depicted in this stunning chromolithograph from Loredan Larchey's Ancient Equestrian Armorials of the Order of the Golden Fleece and Europe in the 15th Century. This intricately detailed print, housed in the Bibliotheque de l'Arsenal in Paris, showcases Charles in full armor, proudly wearing the crest of a fleur-de-lis on his helmet. Charles the Bold was the last Valois Duke of Burgundy and a significant figure in European history. He was known for his military prowess and his ambitious territorial expansion, which made him a formidable player in the political landscape of the time. This image captures the essence of his power and authority, with his regal bearing and the impressive array of armor and weaponry adorning his body. The Order of the Golden Fleece, to which Charles belonged, was a prestigious and exclusive chivalric order founded by Philip III, Duke of Burgundy, in 1430. The order's emblem, the Golden Fleece, is depicted on Charles's shield, further emphasizing his membership and commitment to this esteemed organization. This chromolithograph is a testament to the artistic and historical significance of the period, providing a glimpse into the grandeur and opulence of the 15th century European court. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the image to life, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical art or European history.
