EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic print captures the moment when Count Otto of Wittelsbach (1120-1183) was bestowed with the duchy of Bavaria by the Holy Roman Emperor Friedrich I in the year 1153. The event marked a significant turning point in German history, as Otto went on to rule as Otto I, the first Wittelsbach duke of Bavaria. The image shows Emperor Friedrich I, dressed in imperial robes and crowned with the imperial crown, presenting the ducal insignia to a humbly kneeling Count Otto. Surrounded by a gathering of nobles and clergy, the scene exudes an air of solemnity and importance. The intricate details of their clothing and the ornate decorations in the background add to the sense of grandeur and historical significance. The Wittelsbach family, originally of Bohemian origin, had long been vying for power in Bavaria. With the support of Emperor Friedrich I, Otto was able to secure the duchy and establish a powerful and influential lineage that would last for centuries. The Wittelsbachs went on to rule various territories in Germany, including the Palatinate, Bavaria, and the Rhineland, making them one of the most prominent and enduring dynasties in German history. This print, with its intricate details and historical significance, offers a glimpse into the political landscape of medieval Germany and the complex web of alliances and power struggles that shaped the region. It serves as a reminder of the pivotal role that individual leaders played in shaping the course of history and the lasting impact of their decisions.
