EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Maximilianus, the illustrious Holy Roman Emperor who reigned from 1493 to 1519. The woodcut illustration, created by Rudolph Wyssenbach and printed by Andreas Gesner in Zurich in 1559, beautifully captures the essence of this influential figure. Maximilianus is portrayed with great attention to detail, his profile exuding power and authority. The intricate lines of the woodcut bring out every contour of his face, emphasizing his regal features. This portrait is a testament to the skill and artistry of Hans Rudolf Manuel Deutsch, who masterfully recreated Maximilianus' likeness based on ancient coins. The image also holds historical significance as it was part of a larger collection titled "Imperatorum romanorum omnium orientalium et occidentalium verissimae imagines ex antiquis numismatis". Alongside each illustration were detailed descriptions of each emperor's life from Jacob Strada's treasury. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time to an era when emperors ruled vast territories and shaped history. It serves as a reminder of Maximilianus' enduring legacy and his impact on the Holy Roman Empire. This print offers us a glimpse into both artistic mastery and historical importance. It invites us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its ability to preserve the memory of an extraordinary ruler for generations to come.
