EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a significant moment in history, as Francis II, the Holy Roman Emperor and Emperor of Austria, delivers a sermon on the Hungarian constitution during his coronation as King of Hungary. The image showcases the grandeur and power associated with royalty in the late 18th century. Standing tall on a platform adorned with an exquisite carpet, Francis II commands attention in his regal uniform and crown. His presence is further enhanced by the majestic horseman beside him, holding onto the reins tightly. As he addresses the crowd gathered before him, soldiers stand at attention while bishops listen intently to his words. The composition of this lithograph beautifully highlights both religious and political aspects. The bishop's robes symbolize faith and spirituality while emphasizing Francis II's role as defender of religion within his empire. Meanwhile, soldiers surrounding him represent strength and protection for his people. The artist skillfully captures not only Francis II's physical appearance but also conveys a sense of authority through intricate details such as his sword resting by his side. This print from Granger Art on Demand serves as a testament to an important era in European history when emperors held immense power over their subjects. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back to that historic day in June 1792 when Francis II delivered a powerful sermon that would shape Hungary's future under Austrian rule for years to come.
