Original Description
The small but exquisite statuette Jeanne d'Évreux and Charles IV by Jean de Liège (c. 1365) captures the quiet intimacy of the royal couple in the refined Gothic style of 14th-century French court art. Crafted from delicate ivory with traces of original polychromy, the work embodies the era’s fascination with elegance and piety—its slender figures, flowing drapery, and tender gestures reflecting both earthly love and spiritual devotion. As a rare surviving example of medieval portrait sculpture, it offers a glimpse into the private lives of Charles IV (the last Capetian king) and his beloved queen, Jeanne d’Évreux, whose celebrated patronage included the Hours of Jeanne d’Évreux illuminated by Jean Pucelle. Housed at the Louvre, this piece bridges religious solemnity and courtly grace, marking a transition toward naturalism in pre-Renaissance art.
For a modern space, this artwork’s timeless sophistication shines best in a curated, quiet setting. Place a high-quality reproduction (scaled to 10–12 inches tall) on a lacquered walnut console or within a glass-fronted niche to echo its medieval reliquary origins. Pair it with deep jewel tones—burgundy or sapphire walls—to accentuate any remaining pigment traces in the original, while soft directional lighting (like a brass picture light) will mimic candlelit chapels. In a home office, position it alongside leather-bound books or minimalist gilded frames to harmonize its Gothic intricacy with contemporary warmth. Avoid clutter; let its quiet dignity anchor the room as a conversation piece that bridges history and craftsmanship.
