EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the grandeur of the 19th century, specifically to the Basilica of Saint Denis in Paris. The year is 1893, and we witness a remarkable meeting between two influential figures - Charles I and Charles Quint. The image was originally featured in Le Petit Journal on September 16th, capturing a significant moment in history. The scene unfolds inside the majestic basilica, where an array of people gathers to witness this extraordinary encounter. Dressed in elaborate robes and hats befitting their royal status, both monarchs stand side by side at the center of attention. King Charles I of Great Britain and Ireland extends his hand towards Holy Roman Emperor Charles Quint as a gesture of welcome. The atmosphere is filled with reverence as Christianity plays a prominent role within this sacred space. Spectators observe intently while bishops clad in vibrant attire surround the kings. The intricate details captured by Antoine Jean Gros highlight not only their regal appearance but also emphasize their religious affiliation. This photograph transports us back to an era when power dynamics were shaped by both political influence and divine authority. It serves as a testament to the historical significance that unfolded within these walls centuries ago – reminding us that even today, art media can transport us through time, allowing us glimpses into moments that have shaped our world forever.
