EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and significance of the Coronation Procession of Charles II in 1662. Created by Wenceslaus Hollar, a renowned Bohemian etcher, this image takes us back to the 17th century when England was celebrating the restoration of its monarchy. The scene unfolds within Westminster Abbey, an iconic architectural feature that has witnessed countless royal events throughout history. The vaulted ceiling and Gothic elements add a sense of majesty to this momentous occasion. King Charles II, dressed in regal attire, is surrounded by courtiers and officials as he makes his way through the cathedral. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to a time when tradition and religion played significant roles in society. The people gathered here reflect both their devotion to Christianity and their loyalty to their monarch. Wenceslaus Hollar's masterful etching brings this historical event to life with intricate details and impeccable craftsmanship. Through his artistry, he immortalizes not only King Charles II but also the rich heritage of England. Displayed at The Met museum today, this print serves as a reminder of our past and invites us to appreciate the beauty found in centuries-old traditions. It allows us to connect with history on a deeper level while reminding us of our shared cultural legacy.
