EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph showcases King Pepin the Short, a prominent figure in the Carolingian Dynasty and ruler of the Franks from 714 to 768. The image depicts him wearing a regal crown adorned with an orb and sceptre, while donning a crimson cloak trimmed with ermine. Created by Villain in the 19th century, this illustration is based on Horace de Viel-Castel's work titled "Collection des costumes, armes et meubles pour servir à l'histoire de la France" (Collection of costumes, weapons and furniture to be used in the history of France), published by Treuttel & Wurtz, Bossange in 1827. The lithograph captures the essence of medieval French fashion and offers insight into ancient history. It provides viewers with a glimpse into eighth-century attire through its intricate details and vibrant colors. King Pepin III's presence exudes power and authority as he stands tall wearing his royal garments. This print serves as both an artistic representation of historical figures and a testament to their significance within French culture. It invites us to explore the rich tapestry of medieval manuscripts illuminated during that era. With its meticulous craftsmanship, this piece from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only King Pepin's legacy but also the artistry involved in preserving our past for future generations.
