EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Pepin-Le-Bref at the Champ de Mars" takes us back in time to witness a significant moment in French history. The image, captured by Frederic Theodore Lix, showcases a scene from the illustrious Champ de Mars, where Pepin-Le-Bref stands proudly amidst a crowd of onlookers. The composition is rich with symbolism and cultural references. In the foreground, we see Pepin-Le-Bref holding an ornate sword, symbolizing his power and authority as King of the Franks. Behind him looms a majestic lion statue, representing strength and courage. The backdrop of this historical tableau is none other than Paris itself - the city of love and enlightenment. Its iconic landmarks are faintly visible in the distance, reminding us of France's grandeur. Amidst all this grandeur lies an unexpected element: a cow peacefully grazing nearby. This juxtaposition serves as a reminder that even amidst power struggles and political ambitions, life continues its natural course. This stunning print was originally featured in Mme de Witt's book "La France" published by Hachette in 1895. It offers us a glimpse into French culture during that era while celebrating their rich heritage. Bridgeman Images has flawlessly preserved this piece for our enjoyment today. As we gaze upon it, we can't help but feel transported to another time - one filled with regal splendor and timeless beauty.
