EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - "The anointing of Charles I by George Abbot, Archbishop of Canterbury". Taken on Candlemas Day in 1626 at Westminster Abbey, this image showcases the solemn ceremony that marked the divine blessing and consecration of Charles I as the King of England. The lithograph, created by Amedee Forestier in 1902 for The Illustrated London News, beautifully depicts the grandeur and regality of this event. Intricately detailed, we see Charles I kneeling beneath a magnificent canopy while wearing his royal robes. George Abbot stands beside him, adorned in his bishop's vestments and holding a ceremonial mitre. The scene is filled with symbolism and religious significance as the archbishop anoints the king with holy oil, signifying his divine right to rule. The composition exudes elegance and power through its careful use of light and shadow. Every detail is meticulously captured - from the delicate folds of fabric to the ornate baldachin above them. This image transports us back to a time when monarchy held immense authority and ceremonies like these were essential for legitimizing rulership. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Stapleton Collection, we are reminded not only of Charles I's reign but also of Britain's rich history. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, art continues to preserve moments that shaped our world forever.
