EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported back in time to witness a remarkable moment in literary history. The photo captures the essence of Christine de Pisan, a renowned French poet from the 14th century, as she sits at her desk engrossed in her work. Bathed in the warm glow of sunlight streaming through an elegant window, Christine is visited by three ethereal figures - Reason, Rectitude, and Justice. Dressed in exquisite medieval gowns that flow gracefully around them, these personifications of virtues appear before Christina with a promise to assist her in writing La Cité des Dames (The City of Ladies). Their presence symbolizes not only divine inspiration but also the importance of intellect and moral integrity in Christine's creative process. As our eyes wander across the image, we can't help but admire every intricate detail captured by the artist. From Christine's elaborate head dress to the ornate lectern holding her book, each element adds depth and authenticity to this historical scene. This etching serves as a powerful reminder of Christine de Pisan's significant contribution to literature during a time when women's voices were often silenced. It celebrates her determination and talent while shedding light on the challenges she faced as a female writer striving for recognition. Whether you are an admirer of medieval poetry or simply appreciate art that tells stories from centuries past, this stunning print will transport you into another era where creativity flourished against all odds.
