EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing an audience at the court of King Lothaire of France during the Carolingian dynasty. The scene is depicted in a beautifully detailed 15th-century miniature taken from "Les grandes Chronicles de France" and currently housed in Musee Goya, Castres, France. The image transports us back to the 9th century, offering a glimpse into the grandeur and power of the French monarchy. King Lothaire (941-986) sits regally on his throne as he receives various individuals who seek his counsel or present themselves for his approval. The intricate illumination work adds depth and richness to this historical tableau. Notably, clergy members are also present at this gathering, highlighting their influential role within medieval society. Their presence suggests that matters of both secular and religious importance were discussed during these royal audiences. The artist behind this masterpiece remains unknown but has skillfully captured the essence of this era with meticulous attention to detail. This artwork serves as a valuable historical artifact that allows us to better understand the political dynamics and social structures prevalent during Lothaire's reign. Luisa Ricciarini's expertly reproduced print brings this remarkable piece closer to contemporary viewers while honoring its original beauty. It offers art enthusiasts and history buffs alike an opportunity to appreciate and reflect upon one of Europe's most fascinating dynasties - the Carolingians.
