EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite plate in faience, adorned with the striking portrait of Charlemagne. Created by the talented artist Albert Anker, this piece is a true testament to his skill and attention to detail. The plate is currently housed in the Musee des beaux-arts de la ville de Paris, PeuPalais, where it stands as a remarkable example of French artistry. Charlemagne, also known as Charles the Great, was a significant figure in European history. Born around 742 and passing away in 814, he was a powerful king who played a crucial role in shaping medieval Europe. This effigy serves as both a tribute to his legacy and an artistic masterpiece. The ceramic medium adds depth and texture to the portrait, capturing Charlemagne's regal presence with precision. As we gaze upon this artwork from the early twentieth century, we are transported back to the Middle Ages when Charlemagne reigned over vast territories. The plate not only represents an important historical figure but also reflects French culture and craftsmanship at its finest. It reminds us of the rich heritage that France possesses and how art can transcend time. Through this photograph by Kim Young Tae, we are given a glimpse into history—a moment frozen in time that allows us to appreciate both Anker's talent and Charlemagne's enduring influence on European civilization.
