EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Coronation of Hugues Capet (987)" by Adalberon, Archbishop of Reims. The artwork is an illumination from a manuscript on vellum called the "Great Chronicles of Saint-Denis" dating back to the late 14th century. This particular image can be found on page 172v. The coronation scene depicts Hugues Capet, who reigned as King of France from 987 until his death in 996. Adalberon, known for his exceptional artistic skills, beautifully captures this significant moment in history through intricate details and vibrant colors. The illuminated manuscript itself is a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry prevalent during the Middle Ages. Its delicate illustrations and calligraphy provide valuable insights into medieval culture and religious practices. This stunning photograph was taken by Leonard de Selva and is part of the collection at Bibliotheque de Toulouse in France. It offers viewers a glimpse into a time long gone but still preserved within these ancient pages.
