EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historical moment when Charles II the Bald, a prominent figure in French history, signed the Treaty of Verdun in 843. The treaty marked a significant turning point as it established the division of Charlemagne's vast empire among his three grandsons. Designed and engraved by Ambroise Tardieu in 1825, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of this pivotal event. Intricately detailed, Tardieu's engraving brings to life the regal figures of Charles II and Louis II the Germanic as they engage in this important agreement. Their expressions reflect both determination and diplomacy, symbolizing their commitment to securing peace and stability for their respective territories. The Treaty of Verdun itself holds immense historical significance as it laid the foundation for modern-day France and Germany. It not only shaped political boundaries but also influenced cultural identities that persist to this day. Preserved within a private collection, this remarkable piece offers viewers an opportunity to delve into medieval European history through artistry. Stefano Bianchetti skillfully captures every intricate detail with finesse, allowing us to appreciate Tardieu's masterful work even centuries later. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of how treaties can shape nations and alter destinies. This image serves as a reminder that behind every monumental decision lies individuals who possess both power and vision - leaders like Charles II whose actions continue to resonate throughout time.
