EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic moment when Charlemagne, the King of the Franks, is crowned Emperor of the Romans by Pope Leo III. The watercolor painting beautifully captures this significant event in European history. In this illustration, Charlemagne stands tall and regal, donning a period costume befitting his royal status. His eyes are fixed on something beyond our view, perhaps contemplating the weight of his newfound title and responsibilities as Emperor. With one hand holding a crown atop his head, he demonstrates both humility and pride. Pope Leo III stands beside him, clad in monk's robes symbolizing his religious occupation. Kneeling before Charlemagne with reverence and respect, he places the crown upon the king's head - an act that solidifies their alliance between church and state. The scene takes place indoors against a simple white background in a studio setting. This deliberate choice allows us to focus solely on these historical figures without any distractions. As we gaze at this remarkable artwork by Dorling Kindersley, we cannot help but feel transported back to a time long gone - an era filled with power struggles, grandeur, and faith. It serves as a reminder of how Christianity played a pivotal role in shaping Europe's political landscape during medieval times. This print is not just an aesthetically pleasing piece; it also serves as an educational tool that invites us to delve into history and appreciate its profound impact on our present-day society.
