EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Chateau d'Anet, nestled near Dreux, France. Built between 1547 and 1552 by the talented architect Philibert de l'Orme, this architectural masterpiece was commissioned by Diane de Poitiers, the beloved mistress of King Henry II of France. The chateau's grandeur is beautifully captured in this engraving from "La France et les Francais a Travers les Siecles" a historical volume edited by F Roy and published in Saint-Antoine between 1882-1884. The image transports us back to the 16th century, where we can admire the intricate details of this stately home. Its elegant exterior reflects the country's rich history and artistic heritage. Surrounded by lush countryside in Eure-et-Loir, Chateau d'Anet stands as a testament to love and power intertwined. Diane de Poitiers, Duchess of Valentinois, played an influential role not only as Henry II's mistress but also as his trusted advisor. This enchanting chateau served as their private sanctuary away from courtly affairs. As we gaze upon this monochrome depiction, we are reminded of the enduring beauty that lies within French architecture. The print collector has skillfully preserved its essence for generations to come. Let us appreciate this remarkable snapshot frozen in time - a window into an era when love stories unfolded amidst breathtaking landscapes like Chateau d'Anet.
