EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Plate H: Election and Coronation of Emperor Maximilian II, 1612" takes us back to the vibrant political scene of 17th century Germany. Created by an anonymous artist, this antique etching beautifully captures the historic event that marked the rise of Maximilian II as Holy Roman Emperor. The illustration depicts a grand exhibition hall filled with figures from all walks of life. Men and women gather in awe, their postures reflecting a mix of anticipation and reverence for this momentous occasion. The attention to detail is remarkable; every figure is meticulously drawn, showcasing the artist's skill in capturing human form. In the center stands Maximilian II himself, surrounded by his loyal subjects who kneel before him in homage. His regal presence commands respect while conveying a sense of humility befitting a true leader. This royal event serves as a testament to both German heritage art and political power during this era. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print offers viewers a glimpse into history—a snapshot frozen in time that allows us to appreciate not only the artistic talent behind it but also the significance of Maximilian II's election and coronation within European politics.
