EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment when Anselm was made Archbishop of Canterbury by William II in 1093. The image, taken from A Chronicle of England BC 55 to AD 1485, published in London in 1863, showcases a color lithograph created by James William Edmund Doyle. Anselm, an esteemed Abbot of Bec, is depicted lying on a bed as he receives his ordination as Archbishop. The scene exudes religious significance and reverence, with clergy members surrounding him and a crozier symbolizing his new role within the church. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into the medieval world during the Middle Ages. The presence of King William II adds another layer of importance to this historical event. As one of Britain's royals, he played a pivotal role in appointing Anselm to this prestigious position. The regal atmosphere is further emphasized by the opulent furnishings and antlers adorning the room. Through this photograph print from Fine Art Finder's Stapleton Collection, we are transported back in time to witness an essential moment in English history. It serves as a testament to both Anselm's significant ecclesiastical contributions and William II's influence over religious affairs during their era. This image not only provides insight into the power dynamics between kings and archbishops but also highlights Christianity's central role within British society at that time.
