EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving by Scrantoni, from Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World," published in Florence in 1847, depicts the Coronation of King Eric the Saint of Sweden. Eric, also known as Erik IX or Erik the Pious, was the King of Sweden from 1150 to 1160. He is considered a saint in the Swedish Lutheran Church due to his piety and efforts to promote Christianity in Sweden. In the image, King Eric is shown seated on a throne, wearing a richly decorated robe and a crown adorned with jewels and crosses. A bishop, dressed in his liturgical vestments, holds a halo above the king's head, signifying his sainthood. Eric holds a sceptre in one hand and an orb in the other, symbols of his royal power and authority. The intricate details of the engraving show the grandeur of the coronation ceremony, with attendants in various costumes and robes, some bearing torches and others holding banners. The scene is set in a grand hall, with ornate columns and a high ceiling adorned with intricate designs. The use of handcolouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a stunning historical illustration. Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World" was a popular and influential work in the 19th century, showcasing the diverse costumes and traditions of various peoples around the world. This particular image of the Coronation of King Eric the Saint of Sweden is a testament to the meticulous research and artistic skill of the publisher and the engraver, providing a glimpse into the rich history and culture of medieval Sweden.
