EDITORS COMMENTS
Charlemagne, also known as Charles the Great or Carolus Magnus, is depicted in this stunning historical print, regally dressed in rich robes and adorned with the symbols of his power. The image, created in the late 19th or early 20th century, captures the essence of Charlemagne's reign as King of the Franks (768), King of the Lombards (774), and Emperor of the Romans (800). The intricate detail of the print showcases Charlemagne's regal attire, complete with a crown adorned with precious stones, a cross scepter, and an orb symbolizing his imperial power. The eagle, a powerful symbol of the Roman Empire, perches on his shoulder, while a sword and heraldic shield are at his side. The inscription below the image reads "Carolus Magnus, Karolus, Rex Francorum et Langobardorum, Imperator Romanorum," translating to "Charles the Great, Charles, King of the Franks and Lombards, Emperor of the Romans." Charlemagne's reign, which lasted from 742 to 814, was marked by military conquests, political stability, and the spread of Christianity throughout Europe. This print serves as a testament to his greatness and the enduring legacy of the Holy Roman Empire. The historical significance of this image is further emphasized by the use of the imperial orb, a symbol of sovereignty and the divine right of kings, and the cross, a reminder of Charlemagne's piety and his role as the "Father of Europe." This print is a must-have for history enthusiasts, art collectors, and those interested in the rich tapestry of European history. Its intricate detail and historical accuracy make it a valuable addition to any collection, and a reminder of the enduring legacy of one of Europe's greatest rulers.
