EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of the Baptism of Clovis by Anastase II in the Cathedrale of Reims on December 25,498. The image, taken by Leonard de Selva, showcases a scene from "Histoire des popes" vol. 1, Maurice Lachatre. In this remarkable engraving, we witness an unknown artist's interpretation of this significant event in Christian history. The composition exudes a sense of grandeur and reverence as it depicts the baptism ceremony taking place within the majestic cathedral walls. The central focus is on Clovis I, the King who played a pivotal role in establishing Christianity as the official religion of France. His conversion to Catholicism marked a turning point for both his reign and French history as a whole. Surrounded by clergy members and witnesses, including Anastase II himself - depicted with utmost detail - Clovis stands tall amidst this momentous occasion. The artist skillfully portrays emotions ranging from awe to serenity on each face present. Through this photograph print, we are transported back to an era where religious conversions held immense significance and shaped entire civilizations. It serves as a powerful reminder not only of our shared human history but also highlights the enduring influence that faith has had throughout centuries. Leonard de Selva's masterful capture allows us to appreciate both the artistic beauty and historical importance contained within this single frame.
