EDITORS COMMENTS
In this exquisite hand-colored lithograph, we behold the enchanting visage of Jeanne II de Chalons, Comtesse de Tonnerre, Vicomtesse de Ligny. Born in 1394, Jeanne was a noblewoman of the French aristocracy during the late Middle Ages. Her lineage traced back to the esteemed House of Chalon, a powerful dynasty that held significant influence in the Duchy of Burgundy. The intricately detailed image portrays Jeanne in an elegant and refined attire, befitting her noble status. Her headdress, adorned with delicate pearls and feathers, frames her face, which is expressionless yet captivating. Her robe, embroidered with intricate floral patterns, is a testament to the opulence and craftsmanship of the era. The rich fabric, draped artfully over her slender figure, is a visual feast for the eyes. Jeanne's attire is a reflection of the grandeur and sophistication of the French aristocracy during the late Middle Ages. The intricate details of her clothing, from the embroidery to the pearls, speak to the wealth and power of her family. Her regal bearing and serene expression convey a sense of confidence and poise, making her a true embodiment of nobility and grace. This stunning lithograph is a masterpiece from the collection "Costumes Historiques de la France," published by Le Bibliophile Jacob, also known as Paul Lacroix, in 1852. The image is a reproduction of a miniature from Roger de Gaignieres portfolio, VII 75, and was expertly hand-colored by Leopold Massard. The result is a breathtaking work of art that transports us back in time, allowing us to catch a glimpse of the elegance and grandeur of the French aristocracy during the Middle Ages.
