EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in French history - the order of consecration and coronation of the kings of France. The scene unfolds within the grandeur of a cathedral, as the king makes his regal entrance, surrounded by bishops, monks, and clerics. The atmosphere is filled with reverence and anticipation. At the center of attention sits the king on his majestic throne, embodying both secular power and divine authority. His presence commands respect and admiration from all those present. This image beautifully showcases the intricate details found in medieval manuscripts. The miniature itself is taken from "L'Ordo du Corre" dating back to 1250, illuminated by two master artists - Master of Life of Saint-Denis and Le Maitre de Guignes. Their skillful craftsmanship brings life to this historical event through vibrant colors and meticulous brushwork. As we gaze upon this photograph today, we are transported back to a time when religion played an integral role in shaping society. It serves as a reminder of how deeply intertwined faith was with politics during that era. This remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into thirteenth-century France – its religious fervor, royal pomp, and cultural heritage all captured within one frame. It stands as a testament to human creativity across centuries while honoring an important chapter in French history.
