EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic "Statue of the Emperor Charlemagne" created by Louis Rochet, a renowned engraver from the 19th century. The statue is showcased in all its glory, depicting Charlemagne on horseback, exuding power and authority. The artwork was originally commissioned as an illustration for Augustin Challonel's book "La France et les Francais a Travers les Siecles" published in 1882. It beautifully represents the historical significance of Charlemagne, who was not only a king but also held the prestigious title of Holy Roman Emperor during the Middle Ages. Charlemagne's equestrian stance symbolizes his prowess as a ruler and warrior. The intricately detailed sculpture showcases his regal attire and highlights his role in shaping European history. The image transports us back to medieval times when horses played an essential role in transportation, warfare, and sport. In this piece, we witness several animals alongside Charlemagne's noble steed - racehorses, ponies, shire horses - representing both wildlife and livestock that were integral to daily life during that era. As we admire this remarkable artwork captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, it serves as a reminder of France's rich cultural heritage and its significant contributions to European history. This print allows us to appreciate not only Louis Rochet's exceptional craftsmanship but also Charlemagne's enduring legacy as one of Europe's most influential rulers.
