EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking image captures the momentous occasion of the Sacre, or coronation, of King Louis XI of France in 1461, as it took place in the hallowed halls of Reims Cathedral. The Sacre of Louis XI, depicted in this print from Mary Evans Prints Online, is an essential chapter in the rich history of France and the European monarchy. King Louis XI, the last Valois king of the House of Valois, ascended to the throne in 1461 following the death of his predecessor, Charles VII. The Sacre was a significant event in the political and religious life of the kingdom, marking the formal investiture of the new monarch with the symbols of royal power and the divine blessing of the Church. The ceremony took place in Reims Cathedral, a site steeped in history and significance as the traditional location for the coronation of French kings since Clovis I in 496 AD. The cathedral's grand architecture, with its soaring vaults and intricate stained glass, provides a fitting backdrop for the grandeur of the event. In the image, King Louis XI, dressed in his regal robes and adorned with the Crown of Charlemagne, is shown being anointed by the Archbishop of Reims, who holds the sacred oil. The queen, Charlotte of Savoy, stands by his side, supporting her husband as he takes the oath to rule justly and faithfully. The high-ranking clergy and nobility of the realm look on, their expressions a mix of awe, reverence, and anticipation. This print offers a glimpse into the majesty and pageantry of a medieval coronation, a testament to the power and importance of the monarchy in the Middle Ages. The Sacre of Louis XI at Reims was a pivotal moment in French history, marking the beginning of a new reign and the continuation of the Valois dynasty.
