About the Item

The Maneige Royal, or L’Instruction du Roy, by Antoine de Pluvinel, here painted on a silk scarf. Great to use framed as it is an old textile from the 1940s. In the middle with the Manuscript in French text of the Royal instruction and around Men on horse with different postures. Condition: Some light water stains and a tiny hole, please check pictures. How to Ride a Horse is a painting by Antoine Pluvinel. Pignatelli, through his student was instrumental in initiating the French 'Golden Age of Equitation,' an era of exploration of training as a high art, funded by the royal coffers that would last for two hundred years, until that aristocratic focus was ended by the French Revolution. Antoine de Pluvinel (1552, Crest, Dauphine - 24 August 1620) was the first of the French riding masters, and has had great influence on modern dressage. He wrote L’Instruction du Roy en l’exercice de monter à cheval ("instruction of the King in the art of riding"), was tutor to King Louis XIII, and is credited with the invention of using two pillars, as well as using shoulder-in to increase suppleness. In 1594, Pluvinel founded the "Academie d'Equitation" near what is now Place des Pyramides, a long-time dream. There, the French nobility was trained not only in horsemanship, but also in all the accomplishments (dancing, fashionable dressing, etc.) It can be said that Pluvinel's influence on the aristocracy lasted from the late 16th century to the 17th century. Richelieu, the future Prime minister of King Louis XIII attended the Academie; so did William, duke of Cavendish.
