EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the coronation of Pope Clement V, a significant event that marked the beginning of the Babylonian Captivity of the Popes in Southern France. The image, taken from the Cronaca Villani dating back to the 14th century, transports us to a medieval ceremony filled with grandeur and symbolism. In this intricately detailed miniature, we witness Pope Clement V being crowned as leader of the Catholic Church. Surrounded by men dressed in traditional attire, he stands tall and regal, exuding authority and power. The French influence is evident through their distinctive clothing style. The crown atop his head serves as a visual representation of his papal status and reinforces his position as spiritual leader. It gleams under soft lighting, emphasizing its importance within this historical moment. As we delve into this remarkable artwork captured on paper, it becomes clear that it holds immense historical significance beyond its aesthetic appeal. This image immortalizes an era when popes were held captive in Southern France – an episode known as the Babylonian Captivity – which had far-reaching consequences for both religious and political realms.
