EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored woodcut print captures the momentous occasion when Charlemagne ascended to the throne of the Franks following the death of his father, Pepin III. The image depicts a young and determined Charlemagne, known for his towering stature and imposing presence, as he takes on the mantle of kingship in 8th century Europe.
Charlemagne, also known as Charles I or Carolus Magnus, would go on to become one of history's most influential rulers. As a member of the Carolingian dynasty, he expanded his empire across Western Europe and was eventually crowned Holy Roman Emperor by Pope Leo III in 800 AD.
In this detailed engraving, we see Charlemagne surrounded by members of his court and loyal subjects, symbolizing unity and strength during a time of political upheaval. The intricate costumes and regal attire worn by those present reflect the grandeur and prestige associated with royalty in medieval times.
The inclusion of an elegant dog at Charlemagne's feet adds a touch of whimsy to this otherwise solemn scene. Dogs were often considered symbols of loyalty and fidelity in medieval art, further emphasizing Charlemagne's noble qualities as a ruler.
This historic print serves as a visual reminder of Charlemagne's legacy as a powerful monarch who shaped European history for centuries to come.
