This print showcases the iconic Roger II of Sicily, a prominent figure in history. Born in 1095, he went on to become the Count and first king of Sicily from 1130 to 1154. The image captures a significant moment in his life - his coronation by Christ himself. The scene depicted is reminiscent of a stunning mosaic found in the Montreale Cathedral located in Palermo, Sicily, Italy. This artwork dates back to the 12th century and beautifully portrays Roger II being crowned by Jesus Christ. The divine right bestowed upon him is evident through this symbolic act. Roger II's noble stature is emphasized as he stands before Christ with an aura of authority and power surrounding him. His regal crown further signifies his royal status and highlights his role as king.
