G. KAUPERT (1819-1897), Barbarossa in the Kyffhäuser, Pencil
Est: €300 - €400
Gustav Kaupert (1819 Kassel - 1897 ibid.): Barbarossa in the Kyffhäuser, relief design, 19th century, Pencil Technique: Pencil on Paper Inscription: Verso inscribed by another person: "Kaupert". Date: 19th century Description: Scene with the awakened Barbarossa at the marble table. Person: Depicted: Barbarossa; Emperor Friedrich 1., HRR Staufer (around 1122 - 1190 Seleucia) From the noble family of the Staufers, Frederick III was Duke of Swabia from 1147 to 1152. Duke of Swabia, Roman-German King from 1152 to 1190 and Emperor of the Roman-German Empire from 1155 to 1190. Barbarossa's election was the result of a reconciliation of interests between several princes. Probably the most important role was played by his cousin Henry the Lion, who as a result of the agreements was able to establish a royal position in northern Germany. However, his many years of promotion by the king disregarded the balance of highly aristocratic family groups and ultimately made Henry a disruptive factor for the other imperial princes. Barbarossa's reign was also marked by the double conflict with the Lombard League of Cities and the papacy. In a society in which honour determined social rank, violations of honour and the resulting compulsion to take revenge led to conflicts that lasted for decades. Barbarossa tried to play a mediating role in the disputes between the Upper Italian cities. However, he failed, attracted accusations of partisanship and was unable to exercise the traditional ruler's duties of peacekeeping and law-keeping. However, the refusal of some cities to submit to the imperial court had to be atoned for in view of the concept of the "honour of the empire" (honor imperii), also to confirm the imperial claim to rule. After Tortona and Milan had been destroyed, Barbarossa intended to fundamentally reorganise the kingship in the Regnum Italicum. Old sovereign rights of the empire were reclaimed or redefined and fixed in writing. All judicial sovereignty and official authority was to emanate from the empire. However, the appointment of imperial administrators and the extensive financial use of the regalia granted to the emperor met with resistance from the cities. They had long since exercised their regal and jurisdictional rights under customary law. Unlike in Salian times, the conflict with the Pope and the excommunication of the Emperor did not lead to the emergence of a major opposition movement in the northern part of the Empire. It was only after the defeat of the imperial army at the Battle of Legnano in 1176 that the decades-long schism was ended in the Peace of Venice and the conflict with the communes in the Peace of Constance in 1183. Henry the Lion had refused to assist the Emperor in the battle against the Lombard cities in 1176; at the instigation of the princes he was overthrown and forced into exile. Even before his kingship, Barbarossa had taken part in the crusade of his royal uncle Conrad III from 1147 to 1149. In his last years he prepared another crusade after the defeat of the King of Jerusalem, Guido of Lusignan, by Saladin in 1187. The emperor set out on 11 May 1189, but he drowned thirteen months later shortly before reaching his destination. The epithet "Barbarossa" ("Red Beard") did not become a permanent part of the name until the 13th century. Within the framework of the German national movement of the 19th century, Frederick Barbarossa developed into a national myth. The legend of the emperor sleeping in Kyffhäuser, waiting for better times, was associated with the hope of national unity.
