EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness a significant moment in history as "The King of the Romans, Sigismund of Luxemburg, receives the homage of Duke Frederick of Austria". The scene is brought to life through a coloured woodcut by Ulrich von Richental, showcasing his exceptional artistic talent. Sigismund of Luxemburg, an influential figure during the 15th century, was not only King of Hungary and Bohemia but also held the prestigious title of Holy Roman Emperor. Here, he stands tall and regal while accepting the homage from Duke Frederick IV. The duke's nickname "Frederick of the Empty Pocket" adds an intriguing element to their encounter. This particular event took place during the Council of Constance (1414-1418), where Sigismund played a crucial role in resolving religious conflicts within Europe. However, tensions arose between him and Duke Frederick after aiding antipope John XXIII's escape from the council. As a consequence, Sigismund placed Frederick under imperial interdict. Ulrich von Reichenthal's illustration captures both historical significance and artistic brilliance. Published in Augsburg in 1483 as part of a History of the Council of Constance, this image transports us back to that era with its intricate details and vibrant colors. Through this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded once again how art can preserve moments that shaped our world forever.
