EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph print captures the regal presence of Gunther XXI von Schwarzburg, King of Germany from 1304 to 1349. Clad in splinted armor and a tunic adorned with his coat of arms, he stands tall wearing a great helm and holding an escutcheon. The intricate details of his attire are based on his grave effigy found in Frankfurt Cathedral. Created by Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck in 1889, this illustration is part of his renowned work "Costumes, Artworks and Appliances from the Middle Ages to the 17th Century." Dr. Hefner-Alteneck was not only an illustrator but also a museum curator, archaeologist, art historian, and etcher. The image exudes a sense of medieval grandeur and history as it transports us back to the era when Gunther XXI ruled over Germany. His sword at his side and chainmail peeking through his armor add to the authenticity of the depiction. This print serves as a visual time capsule that allows us to appreciate the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating such elaborate garments for royalty during the Middle Ages. Gunther XXI's legacy lives on through this exquisite artwork that showcases both fashion trends and heraldry from centuries past.
