Henri IV le roi vengé
France Empire 1997 316 pages 24x15x3cm. 1997. Broché. 316 pages. Jean Castarède propose une biographie d'Henri IV centrée sur les dix dernières années de son règne. L'auteur émet l'hypothèse que l'assassinat du roi en 1610 ne fut pas l'acte isolé d'un fanatique mais s'inscrirait dans un contexte plus complexe allant jusqu'à établir un parallèle stupéfiant avec un autre assassinat célèbre celui d'un président de la République. L'ouvrage explore également la notion de vengeance menée par le fils du roi Louis XIII plongeant la France dans un jeu de bascule politique

Henri IV Series Corpus Rubenianum Ludwig Burchard part XIV / 2. A. Merle du Bourg.
, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2017 Hardcover with dusjacket, 484 p., 121 b/w ill. + 23 colour ill., 180 x 265 mm, 2017 Languages: English. ISBN 9781909400962.
On 26 February 1622, in Paris, Rubens entered into a contractual agreement to execute two series of paintings, ?by his own hand?, intended to decorate the two parallel galleries of the Parisian palace ? the so-called Luxembourg Palace ? of Maria de? Medici, widow of Henri IV and mother of Louis XIII. Completed in 1625, the twenty-four monumental paintings of the western gallery exalting the life of the Queen Mother form a universally admired ensemble, on display at the Musee du Louvre for the last two centuries. However, the second part of this grand project, envisioned for the eastern gallery of the palace, was abandoned in 1630. The suspension and then premature termination of the project after the Queen Mother?s exile in July 1631 have deprived us of a work that would have been unique, both in its magnitude and in the artistic means Rubens deployed to glorify the royal couple. The Galerie Henri IV, planned as a commemoration of the king?s military victories and a celebration of his triumphs ?in the manner of the triumphs of the Romans? (as the contract has it), remains a puzzle whose missing pieces are more numerous than what is preserved. Still, some fifteen works ? preparatory oil-sketches on panel and large canvases, more or less completed ? have survived. It is above all through the study of these works that this volume aims to arrive at a better understanding of the context, the iconography, and the political significance of the Galerie Henri IV. Despite the frustration (for us, as for Rubens himself) of its abandonment, the unfinished project remains an extraordinary feat of Baroque encomium, and one of the artist?s greatest masterpieces.
