EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print depicts the historic moment when Dagobert I, the King of the Franks, laid the first stone of the Basilica of St Denis in France during the 7th century. The image showcases a significant event in French history and highlights both religious and architectural importance. The scene captures Bishop Dagobert I standing proudly amidst a crowd as he places the foundation stone for this monumental church. The ceremony symbolizes not only his commitment to Christianity but also his dedication to constructing an enduring place of worship. The basilica itself would go on to become a renowned landmark, serving as the final resting place for many French monarchs. The artwork beautifully portrays intricate details of medieval architecture with its arches, columns, and ornate designs. It transports viewers back in time to witness this pivotal moment that shaped both religious and cultural landscapes. As we admire this piece from our private collection, we are reminded of how art can preserve historical events and their significance. This educational card from late 19th or early 20th century serves as a testament to our fascination with history's milestones and our desire to learn from them. Through this print, we celebrate Dagobert I's legacy as well as appreciate the artistic mastery behind capturing such an important moment in European history.
