EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment when Henry of Ulm is awarded his knighthood by the Emperor at the Council of Constance. The scene, depicted in pen and ink on paper by Ulrich von Richental, showcases a significant event during the Council held in Konstanz, Germany from 1414 to 1418. In this grand ceremony, Holy Roman Emperor Sigismund presides over the proceedings as he bestows knighthood upon Henry of Ulm. Surrounding them are monks and bishops adorned with elaborate mitres, symbolizing their high rank within the Roman Catholic Church. Pope Martin V can also be seen among the distinguished guests. The image transports us back to medieval times, where soldiers donning armor stand alongside knights who proudly display their coats of arms. The interior setting exudes an air of feudalism and ritualistic honor. Ulrich von Richental's meticulous attention to detail brings this historical moment to life. Every gesture and expression captured on paper speaks volumes about the significance of this occasion for both Henry of Ulm and those present at the Council. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its historical importance in documenting a crucial event that helped shape Western Schism history.
