EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Statue of Charlemagne, located in St Julien le Pauvre, Paris. Dating back to the 11th or 12th century, this statue is a remarkable representation of the legendary monarch who reigned from 712 to 814. The image is based on an original manuscript illustration from that time period but was reproduced in the 19th century. In this full-length depiction, Charlemagne stands tall and proud, holding a regal orb symbolizing his power as emperor. Adorned with a crown and dressed in royal attire, he exudes authority and grace. This engraving showcases the intricate details of his robe and ornate accessories. The historical significance of Charlemagne cannot be overstated - he was not only King of France but also Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. His reign marked a pivotal era known as the Carolingian Renaissance when art, literature, and education flourished under his patronage. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece captured by Paul Lacroix and Ferdinand Sere for their publication "Le Moyen Age et la Renaissance" we are transported back in time to witness one of history's most influential figures. The print serves as a testament to Charlemagne's enduring legacy as both a warrior king and enlightened ruler.
