France in the early 17th Century was a country marked by political instability and religious conflict. The monarchy was absolute and the power of the French nobility was in decline. The country was also engaged in frequent wars with neighbouring countries, including Germany which borders the region depicted on the map. Despite the challenges, France was experiencing a cultural and artistic renaissance, with the reign of Louis XIV later in the century bringing about a period of prosperity and growth.

Giclée Print Feedback:

Absolutely stellar service! Whilst I was considering my purchase Callum was extremely helpful and friendly, taking the time to actually talk to me rather than keep to business – how refreshing and genuine! I made my purchase quite late in the evening and was surprised to receive notification that it had been dispatched the following day! Lo and behold, I received the print within 48 hours – a remarkably quick turnaround!

Certainly no need to worry about Christmas delivery times! As for the print I bought – perfect… exceptional quality, with fine detail captured without fault. It’s on nice thick paper and packaged with care. I’ll definitely be back for more – I’ve already eyed up my next one!
