EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print captures the historical moment when Raymond VI, the Count of Toulouse, announces to the city of Toulouse the death of Simon de Montfort in 1218. The statue depicted in this artwork is a masterpiece by Jules Jacques Labatut, showcasing his exceptional talent and attention to detail. Raymond VI stands tall and proud as he delivers the news to his people, who gather around him with expressions ranging from shock to relief. The carving beautifully conveys their emotions through intricate facial features and body language. This significant event took place during a time marked by religious conflict and political turmoil in France. Simon de Montfort was a prominent figure known for leading the Albigensian Crusade against Cathar heretics in southern France. His death brought about a turning point in history, impacting not only Toulouse but also shaping the future of French politics and religion. Leonard de Selva's expert photography skillfully captures every nuance of Labatut's sculpture, allowing viewers to appreciate its artistic brilliance even more deeply. The image transports us back in time, immersing us into this pivotal moment that forever altered the course of medieval France. This print serves as a testament to both historical significance and artistic excellence, making it an invaluable addition to any collection or exhibition focused on French history or religious art.
