EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to a significant moment in French history. Titled "Scene of the history of France in toys: plotting against King Louis XI (1423-1483)", it depicts an intricate toy diorama that showcases a pivotal event during the reign of King Louis XI. In this scene, we see Charles Le Temeraire and Jean Balue, two key figures from that era. Jean Balue, who was imprisoned for 11 long years in one of King Louis XI's infamous iron cages on April 23rd, 1469, stands prominently amidst the detailed miniature setting. The attention to detail is remarkable as every element seems meticulously crafted. The artist behind this masterpiece is Job, also known as Jacques-Marie Gaston Onfray de Breville (1858-1931). His talent shines through as he skillfully brings this historical episode to life using toys as his medium. This particular artwork belongs to a private collection and was created in 1908. Through this photograph, we are reminded of the power and influence that toys can hold when used creatively. It serves as a testament to how art can transcend boundaries and capture moments from our rich past. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back centuries ago into the world where political intrigue unfolded against the backdrop of medieval France.
