EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history when Frederick II, the Holy Roman Emperor of Italy, suspected that his medicine was poisoned. Painted by Scarpelli Tancredi in 1866-1937, this artwork is part of a private collection and showcases an illustration for Storia d Italia by Paolo Giudici. Set in the year 1249, this historical image transports us back to a time filled with political intrigue and suspicion. Frederick II, known for his role as a Ghibelline leader during the Italian Middle Ages, gazes intently at his medicine bottle while contemplating its contents. The artist masterfully portrays the emperor's concern and doubt through intricate details and expressive brushstrokes. The context surrounding this event adds depth to the narrative depicted in this artwork. Dante Pierdelle's poem "Frederick II" sheds light on Frederick's obsession with health and longevity. It is said that he even sought advice from Asklepios, the Greek god of healing. As we delve into European history through this image, it serves as a reminder of how power dynamics played out centuries ago. The Hohenstaufen dynasty ruled over vast territories across Europe during their reign. This particular incident highlights not only Frederick II's paranoia but also reflects broader tensions within Italian politics at that time. With its rich symbolism and historical significance, this print invites viewers to explore themes such as trust, betrayal, and power struggles throughout different eras of human civilization.
