This captivating map from 1890 showcases his vast Kingdom of the Franks, highlighting his territorial influence and power. One of Charlemagne's most renowned tales is depicted in "The Death of Roland at Roncesvalles" painting from 1890.

A fascinating glimpse into Charlemagne's religious fervor can be seen in "Charlemagne destroys a pagan idol" artwork from 1936. This powerful image portrays his commitment to Christianity and determination to eradicate paganism throughout his empire. Intricate artistry comes alive through St. Mark's portrayal in the Godescalc Gospel Lectionary from 781-783.

Another significant depiction is found in "Coronation of Charlemagne in Rome, " illustrating how he expanded beyond Frankish territories to establish authority over Rome itself on that fateful Christmas Day in 800 AD.
