Abstract

This thesis examines aspects of the patronage of the arts by Louis, Duke of Orleans. Unlike the scholarship devoted to Charles V and his brothers, the Dukes of Anjou, Berry and Burgundy, the King's sons, Charles VI and Louis of Orleans have only been touched upon. Nevertheless this period of the sovereignty of the French King Charles V, his brothers and his sons coincides with the so-ca11ed "Golden Age of Tapestry." These figures emerge as munificent patrons of art and their role as patrons is ref Jected in the splendour and extravagence of their palaces and their collections.
