EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of the coronation of King Charles V of France in the 14th century. Created by artist A Bisson in 1849, this image is based on an original manuscript illustration found in Chroniques de Froissart, volume IV, held at the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris. The solemn ceremony takes place within a grand church setting, with pillars and columns framing the scene. The king kneels before a bishop who stands tall, ready to crown him with a magnificent golden crown. Surrounding them are members of royalty and other important figures, witnessing this significant event. The print beautifully portrays both the religious significance and regal splendor associated with such a royal occasion. It transports us back to an era where monarchy played a central role in society and Christianity was deeply intertwined with matters of state. Through its monochrome depiction, this artwork evokes a sense of timelessness that transcends centuries. It serves as a visual testament to the power and prestige that surrounded King Charles V during his reign as one of France's wisest monarchs. This remarkable piece from Le Moyen Age et la Renaissance by Paul Lacroix, Ferdinand Sere, and A Rivaud offers viewers an opportunity to delve into history while appreciating the artistry behind it.
