Antique Genealogy Chart of the Leaders of Europe by Chatelain, 1732

About the Item

Antique print titled 'Carte Genealogique des Souverains de l'Europe (..)'. Chart of the royal line of the great Frankish major, Aega. As early as the 14th century the Hapsburgs attempted to trace the origin of their descendants. By the 17th century it was believed that the Hapsburgs descended from the Etichoni, the dukes of Alsace, who could be traced back to Wago, the Count of Montreuil in 512. Aega, the influential palace mayor during the reign of Clovis II, came directly from Wago’s line. Believing the current theories regarding the Hapsburgs, Chatelain obviously constructed this complicated chart in the hopes of tracing the dynasty back to Aega. This print orginates from 'Atlas Historique'. Artists and Engravers: Henri Abraham Chatelain (1684-1743), his father Zacharie Chatelain (d.1723) and Zacharie Junior (1690-1754), worked as a partnership publishing the Atlas Historique. Condition: Very good, general age-related toning. Please study image carefully. Date: 1732 Overall size: 52 x 44.3 cm. Image size: 48.3 x 37.4 cm. We also offer thousands of antique prints covering fields of interest as diverse as architecture, natural history, religion, ethnology and many more. Antique prints have long been appreciated for both their aesthetic and investment value. They were the product of engraved, etched or lithographed plates. These plates were handmade out of wood or metal, which required an incredible level of skill, patience and craftsmanship. Whether you have a house with Victorian furniture or more contemporary decor an old engraving can enhance your living space.

The Landgraviate of Hesse-Kassel (German: Landgrafschaft Hessen-Kassel), spelled Hesse-Cassel during its entire existence, was a state in the Holy Roman Empire that was directly subject to the Emperor. The state was created in 1567 when the Landgraviate of Hesse was divided upon the death of Philip I, Landgrave of Hesse. His eldest son William IV inherited the northern half of the Landgraviate and the capital of Kassel. The other sons received the Landgraviate of Hesse-Marburg, the Landgraviate of Hesse-Rheinfels and the Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt.
