EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Statue of Charlemagne, King of the Franks and Holy Roman Emperor. Created by artist E Bocourt between 1882-1884, this sculpture pays homage to one of history's most influential figures. Charlemagne, also known as Charles the Great, ruled as King of the Franks from 768 and was crowned Emperor of the Romans in 800 AD. The statue depicts Charlemagne on horseback, symbolizing his power and military prowess. With a long flowing beard and a regal crown atop his head, he exudes authority and strength. Holding a staff in his hand, he represents both leadership and war. Charlemagne's kingdom encompassed much of western and central Europe during his reign. His legacy as a monarch is celebrated through this equestrian statue that stands tall as a reminder of his accomplishments. This nineteenth-century engraving showcases not only the artistry involved in creating such an intricate sculpture but also serves as a historical record for future generations to appreciate. The attention to detail captured by Louis Rochet brings out every nuance in Charlemagne's expression while riding into battle. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to an era when empires were forged through bravery and conquest. It serves as a testament to Charlemagne's enduring impact on French history and European civilization at large.
