EDITORS COMMENTS

In this scene, we witness a solemn ceremony taking place at an ornate altar adorned with religious symbols. A bishop stands tall, holding a crucifix as he prepares to crown Charlemagne, also known as Charles the Great or Carolus Magnus. Dressed in regal attire and wearing a majestic crown, Charlemagne exudes power and authority. Surrounded by men dressed in traditional Frankish garments, this royal event is witnessed by numerous people who have gathered to pay homage to their emperor. The atmosphere is filled with reverence and awe. Interestingly, this particular print was used for French advertising purposes around the turn of the century. It served as an advertisement for Liebig's extract of meat – tinned food that provided sustenance during those times.
