In the transept lies a royal throne adorned with a Byzantine mosaic depicting King William II being crowned by Christ himself. The intricate details in this mosaic transport us to an era of regal splendor. Moving forward, we encounter another masterpiece - the "Enthroned Virgin among St. Gervase, Protasio, Paul and Peter. " Created in 1510, this tile showcases a scene from the New Testament that depicts the Madonna seated on her glorious throne. The bronze material adds an air of grandeur to this enchanting piece. As we delve deeper into history, we come across the Polyptych featuring Niccolo Gerini and Giovanni del Biondo's "Madonna Enthroned with the Four Doctors of the Church. " This artwork adorns The Major Chapel and portrays a harmonious blend of religious symbolism and artistic brilliance. Venturing further into Rome's Palazzo del Quirinale brings us to Sala del Trono - a black-and-white photograph capturing its timeless elegance. Here, we can almost feel the presence of past rulers who once sat upon their thrones within these walls. Our journey takes us beyond Europe as well; Ancient Egypt reveals Ethiopians bringing tributes before Pharaohs while showcasing their respect for authority through elaborate ceremonies. Witnessing such displays reminds us of how deeply ingrained reverence for royalty was throughout history. The Grand Viziers' audience with ambassadors paints a picture of diplomatic exchanges during Ottoman times – each ambassador seeking favor from those who held power on their magnificent thrones. These encounters were crucial for maintaining alliances between nations. Traveling back in time to Carolingian Emperor Charles the Bald's reign allows us to witness his imposing presence on his throne.
