Plate 25 - Philip crowned King of Spain by his father, Charles V
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment in history - the coronation of Philip as the King of Spain by his father, Charles V. The image is part of Guillielmus Becanuss' renowned work "Serenissimi Principis Ferdinandi, Hispaniarum Infantis. . . 1636" which beautifully depicts various historical events. In this particular plate, we witness the solemnity and grandeur of the coronation ceremony taking place during the 17th century. The young Philip II stands before his father, Charles V, who was not only a powerful ruler but also held the title of Holy Roman Emperor. This symbolic act represents the passing down of authority from one generation to another. Anton van der Does masterfully captured this historic scene with remarkable attention to detail. The composition exudes a sense of dignity and reverence through its use of light and shadow. Every intricate element contributes to creating an atmosphere that transports us back in time. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), we are reminded not only of Spain's rich heritage but also how power can be transferred within royal families. It serves as a reminder that history is shaped by individuals who hold immense influence over nations. This photograph print offers us a glimpse into an era long gone while inviting contemplation on themes such as succession, monarchy, and familial bonds that have played pivotal roles throughout history.
