EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic print, Friedrich IV, Elector of Brandenburg, is depicted being appointed as Margrave of Brandenburg by Emperor Sigismund in the year 1417. The event took place during a significant period in German history, as Friedrich would later become the Holy Roman Emperor Friedrich IV. Friedrich was born in 1413 as the eldest son of Albrecht III, Margrave of Brandenburg, and Elisabeth of Bavaria. At the time of his appointment as Margrave of Brandenburg, he was only 14 years old. The appointment was a result of the political maneuverings of his father, who sought to strengthen his family's position in the complex web of German politics. Emperor Sigismund, who ruled the Holy Roman Empire from 1410 to 1437, was an important figure in European politics during this time. He was a key player in the Council of Constance, which aimed to resolve the Great Schism in the Catholic Church. Sigismund's appointment of Friedrich as Margrave of Brandenburg was a strategic move, as it helped to secure the loyalty of the powerful Hohenzollern family. The print shows Friedrich being presented with the insignia of the Margraviate of Brandenburg by Emperor Sigismund. The imperial crown, scepter, and orb are prominently displayed, symbolizing the transfer of power and authority. The elaborate robes and regal attire worn by both men underscore the grandeur and importance of the occasion. This print offers a glimpse into the political dynamics of Germany during the early 15th century, a time of intrigue, power struggles, and religious upheaval. The appointment of Friedrich IV as Margrave of Brandenburg marked the beginning of a new chapter in his life and the history of the Hohenzollern family, ultimately leading to his election as Holy Roman Emperor in 1440.
