EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed lithograph captures a significant moment in history - the Election of Henry VII of Luxembourg as Holy Roman Emperor. Taking place in Frankfurt on 27 November 1308, this event marked a pivotal point for Europe during the Middle Ages. The image showcases the grandeur and opulence of the occasion, with nobles and dignitaries gathered to witness the election. The electors, represented by their respective coat of arms, play a crucial role in choosing the new emperor. The heraldry on display reflects not only their individual power but also regional affiliations such as Bavaria, Bohemia, Saxony, Brandenburg, Trier, Mainz, and Cologne. Henry VII's regal presence stands out amidst this sea of historical figures. As Duke of Luxembourg and member of royalty himself, his selection as Holy Roman Emperor solidified his position as one of Europe's most influential leaders. The lithograph offers viewers a glimpse into German culture during this time period. It serves as an educational tool to understand political dynamics within Germany while highlighting its significance on European affairs. This print is part of Deutsche Geschichte by L Stacke (Velhagen & Klasing) published in 1882. Its inclusion in private collections ensures that it continues to be appreciated for its artistic value and historical importance today.
