Bust of Charlemagne

The Bust of Charlemagne (de: ''Karlsbüste'') is a reliquary in the form of the bust of Charlemagne made around 1350, which contains the king's skullcap. The reliquary is part of the Late Medieval treasure kept in the Aachen Cathedral Treasury. The bust is one of the most significant examples of Gothic goldwork and the best-known example of a reliquary bust anywhere. The reliquary is an idealised image, not an actual portrait of Charlemagne.
== Description and art historical significance ==
The reliquary bust is chased with silver and is partially gilt. It depicts the bust of Charlemagne, with a bejeweled, golden lily crown. The hair and beard are gilt, the face and neck worked in chased silver with accentuated modelling. Damascened silver eagles decorate his breast - the Reichsadler as heraldic charge of the Holy Roman Empire signifies the imperial dignity of Charlemagne. The eagles are surrounded by a border of Filigree and precious stones, some of which are ancient intaglios. The bust stands on an octagonal pedestal equipped with an opening on either side for a wooden carrying frame and is decorated with Fleurs-de-lis which support the bust's origin as a gift of Emperor Charles IV who had been raised in France.
The Bust of Charlemagne, as a masterpiece of Mosan goldwork, initiated a golden age of silver gilt naturalistic reliquary busts.〔Klaus Gereon Beuckers: ''Der Essener Marsusschrein.'' Aschendorff, Münster 2006, ISBN 3-402-06251-8, p. 30.〕
