EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the Coronation of the Emperor Sigismund by Pope Eugene IV in the 15th century. The image is an illustration based on a bas-relief found on one of the Bronze Gates of St Peter's Basilica in Rome. Created by Unknown, this wood engraving was featured in Paul Lacroix's book "The Arts of the Middle Ages and at the Period of the Renaissance" published in London in 1870. In this royal event, we witness Sigismund, Holy Roman Emperor, being crowned by Pope Eugene IV. The scene depicts a grand ceremony filled with religious symbolism and medieval splendor. Men dressed in regal attire surround them as witnesses to this historic occasion. The artwork beautifully showcases both German and Italian influences through its intricate sculpture work and attention to detail. It serves as a testament to the power dynamics between church and state during that era. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, it transports us back to a time when religion played a central role in society, shaping political alliances and affirming authority. This print not only celebrates an important coronation but also offers insight into European history during the fifteenth century.
