EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history, showcasing the audacious act of Helene Kottannerin as she steals the Royal Crown of Saint Stephen in 1440. The anonymous artist behind this woodcut from the Pictorial History of the World's Great Nations (1882) beautifully depicts this daring event that took place between Germany, Hungary, and Bohemia. The graphic arts technique employed here adds depth and intensity to the scene, immersing us in a bygone era. As we gaze upon this fine art image, we are transported back to a time when power struggles were rife and individuals like Helene Kottannerin sought to challenge societal norms. Helene's boldness is palpable as she defies convention and seizes control over an emblematic symbol—the Crown of Saint Stephen—belonging to Hungary's queen at that time. This crown held immense significance as it was known as the Holy Crown of Hungary. Through book design aesthetics, this private collection print invites us into an intriguing narrative surrounding Queen Elizabeth of Luxembourg and her rival Helene Kottannerin. It sparks our curiosity about their motivations, aspirations, and ultimately how their actions shaped history. With its historical context intertwined with artistic excellence, this print serves as a testament to human ambition while offering us a glimpse into one woman's extraordinary feat amidst political turmoil.
