EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Theodore de Bry depicts a lively scene from the coronation of Matthias I of Hungary and Croatia, also known as Matthias Corvinus, in the late 15th century. Matthias, a prominent figure in European history, ruled Hungary and Croatia from 1458 until his death in 1490. The coronation, which took place in 1458, was a grand celebration that brought together the nobility of Hungary, Austria, Bohemia, and other neighboring regions. In this image, a joyous couple, likely a duke and his wife, are shown dancing exuberantly in the center of the room. Surrounding them, other dancers twirl and leap, their faces alight with merriment. The room is filled with the warm glow of torches, casting flickering shadows on the walls and adding to the festive atmosphere. The elaborate costumes of the dancers, with their rich fabrics and intricate patterns, speak to the wealth and power of the monarchy. Matthias I was known for his patronage of the arts and learning, and his court was a center of culture and intellectual pursuits. This image provides a glimpse into the modern age of monarchy, where grand celebrations and feasts were an essential part of solidifying a ruler's power and legitimacy. The scene captures the spirit of the era, with its opulence, joy, and sense of community.
