EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic moment of Emperor Charlemagne's coronation by Pope Leo III at St. Peters, Rome in 800. The image is taken from the Grandes Chroniques de France, a vellum manuscript dating back to the 14th century and currently housed in Bibliotheque Municipale, Castres, France. In this medieval religious ceremony, we witness Cardinal Leo III kneeling before Charlemagne as he places the crown upon his head. The altar adorned with sacred symbols adds to the solemnity of this holy event. The tiara worn by Leo III signifies his papal authority and emphasizes the significance of this sacrament. The photograph captures not only an important moment in European history but also highlights the artistic prowess of French engravers during that time period. The vibrant colors used in this engraving bring life to an otherwise distant era. Emperor Charlemagne's reign marked a significant period for Europe as he established and expanded what would become known as the Carolingian Dynasty. This image serves as a testament to his power and influence over medieval Europe. As we delve into history through images like these, we are reminded of how art can transport us across centuries and continents, connecting us with our pasts while inspiring contemplation about our present world.
