EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent royal garments of Charlemagne, a prominent figure in history who reigned from 742 to 814. Created by artist A Bisson in the 19th century, this illustration is based on an original artwork from the 15th century. The image captures Charlemagne's dalmatica, a loose-fitting robe worn by royalty during important events such as coronations. Accompanying the garment are his regal sandals and insignia, symbolizing his position as King of France. Preserved within the treasury of the Abbey of St Denis in France, these garments hold great historical significance. They represent not only Charlemagne's reign but also serve as a testament to French monarchy during that era. The intricate engravings on the clothing highlight its opulence and attention to detail. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this print, emphasizing its connection to both past and present. It serves as a visual link between two centuries while honoring Charlemagne's legacy as an influential sovereign. This image offers viewers a glimpse into medieval fashion and provides insight into the grandeur associated with royal events like coronations.
