EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic coronation of King Henry IV, who reigned over England from 1399 to 1413. The image is an exquisite illumination from the Chronicles d'Angleterre, a manuscript created in Flanders around 1490 by Jean de Wavrin. In the foreground, we witness the grandeur of King Henry IV's coronation ceremony taking place within a lavish court setting. The king sits resplendently on his throne, adorned with a magnificent crown that symbolizes his authority and power. Surrounding him are men dressed in medieval attire, further emphasizing the regal atmosphere. However, it is impossible to ignore the dramatic background scene depicting Richard II's capture and overthrow. This addition adds depth and intrigue to the composition as it alludes to the political turmoil that led to Henry IV ascending to the throne. The craftsmanship displayed in this Flemish illumination is truly remarkable; every detail has been meticulously executed with vibrant colors and intricate patterns. It transports us back in time, allowing us to immerse ourselves in this significant moment of English history. This print serves as a testament not only to King Henry IV's reign but also to the artistic brilliance of Jean de Wavrin and his contribution towards chronicling England's past for future generations.
