EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph print captures the regal presence of Louis IV, the Bavarian, Holy Roman Emperor. The intricate details of his plate armor, chainmail, helm, shield, and heraldry are beautifully depicted in this artwork from 1889. Louis IV ruled as Holy Roman Emperor from 1282 to 1347 and was known for his military prowess and political acumen. His stone effigy at Mainz Museum served as the inspiration for this illustration by C. Ballenberger and lithographed by C. Regnier. The artist, Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck, was a renowned German museum curator, archaeologist, art historian, illustrator, and etcher who specialized in depicting historical costumes and artifacts from the Middle Ages to the 17th century. In this image, Louis IV is portrayed as a noble knight with spurs on his boots ready for battle or ceremony. The attention to detail in his attire showcases the craftsmanship of medieval armorers and highlights the importance of heraldry in conveying status and identity. This chromolithograph not only serves as a visual record of history but also pays homage to an influential figure whose legacy continues to be remembered centuries later.
