It is *fascinating* & indicative of SOMETHING that none of the 4 depict the most common people in Bourdichon's society. The working people are town craftspeople, not rural peasants--yet French society of 1500 was at least 80% peasant. Curieux. #HistSky #History #earlyModernHistory #ArtHistory

🤺21 December 1643. Death of Armand de Sillègue d’Athos d’Autevielle, almost certainly as a result of a duel. He was no more than 28 years old. Were it not for Alexandre Dumas, who found his name in an obscure pseudo-mémoire, Athos would probably have been forgotten by history.🍷

Yesterday, I have obtained my #MA with #distinction in #EarlyModernHistory at @ueahistory.bsky.social. I am able to claim that across all my work, every single fact quoted and each sentence delivered was my own ‘human intelligence creation’, built on old fashioned research and reading. Long live HI.
