Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the impact of Cardinal Richelieu and Jean-Baptiste Colbert on the arts in France. It examines how Richelieu laid the foundations for absolute power by crushing the opposition of nobles, Protestants, and even the Parliament of Paris. His policies helped to centralize authority and create a sense of national unity. Colbert, under King Louis XIV, established financial equilibrium, created the navy, and promoted industry. He played a pivotal role in organizing the arts, establishing institutions like the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture, which played a crucial role in shaping French art and design. By exploring these figures and their contributions, the book sheds light on the origins of the modern centralized state and the role of the arts in shaping national identity.
