EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Charlemagne, the renowned Holy Roman Emperor and King of the Franks. Created in the 16th century and reproduced in 1849, this version is based on an original manuscript illustration held by the Cabinet des Estampes at Bibliotheque Nationale Paris. The image has been colorized from its original black and white format. In this portrait, we see Charlemagne depicted in a side view, highlighting his regal profile. His majestic presence exudes power and authority as he gazes into the distance with a determined expression. Donning royal attire befitting his status, Charlemagne's facial hair adds to his distinguished appearance. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this iconic ruler who left an indelible mark on history. Known for his military conquests and political prowess, Charlemagne united vast territories under his rule during a time of great upheaval in Europe. Displayed against a backdrop that hints at French origins, this print serves as a testament to both artistic talent and historical significance. It offers us a glimpse into the life of one of Europe's most influential figures - Charles I or better known as Charlemagne - whose legacy continues to inspire admiration centuries later. This remarkable piece is part of Le Moyen Age et la Renaissance (The Middle Ages and Renaissance), Volume III published in Paris in 1849 by Paul Lacroix, Ferdinand Sere, and A Rivaud. Its inclusion within these esteemed pages further solidifies its importance within art history collections worldwide.
