EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration of Charlemagne, the legendary King of the Franks, from A. R. Hope Moncrieff's renowned work "Romance and Legend of Chivalry". Created by Henri Leopold Levy in a mesmerizing color lithograph, this piece captures the essence of Charlemagne's regal presence and religious significance. In this image, we see Charlemagne seated majestically on his throne, adorned with a resplendent crown that symbolizes his royal authority. Surrounding him is an angelic figure, representing divine intervention and protection bestowed upon the king. The artist skillfully portrays every intricate detail - from Charlemagne's stoic expression to his Frankish coat of arms proudly displayed behind him. The scene depicted here is reminiscent of the mural found in Paris' Pantheon, paying homage to one of history's most influential rulers. Charlemagne's coronation ceremony comes alive through Levy's masterful artistry as he kneels before a cross held high above him. This striking composition not only celebrates Charlemagne's political power but also highlights his deep devotion to Christianity. It serves as a testament to his significant role in shaping European history during the Middle Ages. As part of a private collection now made accessible through Fine Art Finder and Ken Welsh, this extraordinary print allows us to appreciate both the artistic talent behind it and its historical importance.
