EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in the life of Pepin le Brief, the King of the Franks. In this 19th-century artwork by an unknown artist, we witness Pepin's extraordinary bravery and strength as he fearlessly fights both a lion and a bull during the feasts held to celebrate his coronation in 751. The image showcases Pepin's determination and courage, symbolizing his power as a ruler. The composition is filled with tension and energy, as he engages in combat with these formidable creatures. His regal attire contrasts sharply against the wildness of the animals, emphasizing his dominance over them. The artist has skillfully depicted every detail of this scene using chromolithography chromo technique. The tawny color palette adds to the intensity of the fight, creating a visually striking image that demands attention. This historical event marks an important milestone for Pepin le Brief and highlights his significance in French history. It serves as a reminder of his remarkable reign and how he earned respect from both his subjects and adversaries alike. Displayed proudly in private collections today, this print by Stefano Bianchetti allows us to appreciate not only the artistic talent behind it but also provides us with insight into one of history's most fascinating moments.
