EDITORS COMMENTS
In this stunning 17th-century copperplate engraving, we find a regal and imposing portrait of Holy Roman Emperor Henry II, also known as Henry the Exuberant or Saint Henry the Pious. Born in 973, Henry was the second son of Emperor Otto II and Theophanu, the Byzantine princess. He ascended to the throne in 1002 following the death of his elder brother, Otto III, and ruled until his own death in 1024. Henry II is depicted here in the grandeur of his imperial regalia, wearing a crown adorned with precious gems and a mantle draped over his shoulders. The emperor's right hand rests on a scepter, symbolizing his royal power, while his left hand holds a token or coin, a reminder of his status as a ruler and issuer of currency. The background features a classical architectural setting, evoking the grandeur and majesty of the Roman Caesars and Germanic Kaisers. Henry II is an important figure in European history, particularly for his role in the Salian or Salic dynasty. He was a key player in the political landscape of Europe during the early Middle Ages, and his reign saw significant developments in the areas of law, education, and the arts. Henry II is also revered as a saint in the Catholic Church, having been canonized in 1146 for his piety and devotion. This beautiful copperplate engraving, created by Abraham Bogaerts for the work "De Roomsche Monarchy" or "The Roman Monarchy," published in Utrecht in 1697, provides a captivating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the power, prestige, and piety of Holy Roman Emperor Henry II.
