EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the momentous coronation of Jean Galeas Visconti, also known as Gian Galeazzo Visconti, the Duke of Milan in the 14th century. Dressed in regal scarlet and ermine robes, the duke humbly kneels before King Wenceslaus of Luxembourg to receive his crown. The scene is filled with symbolism and grandeur. To the left of the image, a knight proudly holds aloft the imperial banner while a scribe diligently records this historic event in a book. On the right side, knights display the banner of the Viscontis alongside an impressive sword, representing their power and authority. The handcoloured illustration is derived from a missal found within the archives of Milan's Basilica of Sant'Ambrogio. It was skillfully drawn and lithographed by Paul Mercuri with accompanying text by Camille Bonnard for "Historical Costumes from the 12th to 15th Centuries" published by Levy Fils in Paris during 1860. This remarkable artwork transports us back in time to witness an important moment in European history when noble families vied for power and prestige. It serves as a testament to Gian Galeazzo Visconti's influence as one of Italy's most prominent rulers during this era. Through this photo print, we are granted a glimpse into an age where pageantry met politics, where tradition merged with ambition – all captured beautifully by Bridgeman Images' collaboration with Fine Art Finder.
