Les grandes chroniques de France (3/6) by Paulin Paris

"Les grandes chroniques de France (3/6)" by Paulin Paris is a medieval chronicle first commissioned around 1250. This monumental work traces the history of French monarchy from the legendary Trojan ancestors through the Merovingian, Carolingian, and Capetian dynasties up to 1461. Compiled initially by monks at Saint-Denis and later expanded by royal historians, it became the centerpiece of official French historiography. Many surviving manuscripts feature exquisite illuminations by master artists, reflecting the work's importance to French kings and nobility. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
