This event marked a significant turning point in French history, leading to the ascension of Louis XIII to the throne and the regency of Marie de' Medici.

The painting is a detailed representation of the chaotic scene in the narrow street of Rue de la Ferronnerie, where the royal carriage was halted due to a blockage, allowing the assassin to approach and fatally stab the king. JOB's work captures the horror and confusion of the bystanders, the determined visage of Ravaillac, and the vulnerability of the monarch at the moment of the attack.
