EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic figure of Lothair I, a prominent historical figure from the 9th century. The image depicts him on his horse, exuding power and authority. Created by an Italian School in the 11th century, this vellum artwork is a remarkable testament to the artistic talent of that era. Lothair I was known for his significant role as Holy Roman Emperor during a tumultuous period in European history. His reign marked a time of political and territorial struggles, making him an influential figure in shaping medieval Europe. The pelham bridle adorning his horse adds to the regal aura surrounding Lothair I. The crown atop his head further emphasizes his status as a ruler and symbolizes his connection to royalty. This stunning portrayal captures both the strength and dignity associated with Lothair I's position. Preserved within Abbaye della Trinita della Cava in Cava de Tirreni, Italy, this piece is part of Codex legum Longobardorum - an important collection of Lombard laws. Its historical significance cannot be overstated as it provides valuable insights into legal systems during that time. As we admire this extraordinary artwork today, we are reminded of Lothair I's enduring legacy and influence on European history. It serves as a visual reminder of past civilizations while also showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship prevalent during the Middle Ages.
