EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic image of St Henry, Holy Roman Emperor, taken in 1886. The portrait depicts Henry II, who reigned as the last Holy Roman Emperor of the Saxon Ottonian dynasty during the 11th century. Published in Butlers Lives of the Saints by Rev Alban Butler in London and Dublin, this historic piece captures both religious and royal symbolism. In this portrait, St Henry is portrayed with a regal air befitting his status as a monarch. His commanding presence is emphasized by his ornate crown and halo above his head. Clutching an orb symbolizing his sovereignty, he holds a sword representing both his role as a warrior king and defender of Christianity. The vibrant colors used in this print bring to life the medieval atmosphere surrounding St Henry's reign. The attention to detail highlights every aspect of his attire and weaponry, showcasing the craftsmanship prevalent during that era. St Henry's significance lies not only in his political power but also in his devotion to religion. As a saint within Christianity, he exemplified piety and righteousness throughout his rule. This remarkable print serves as a testament to German history while capturing an important figure from centuries past.
