Abstract
This article engages the iconography known as “celestial coronation”, in which the emperor is directly crown by Christ and his angels and saints, as established in the iconographic motif of the heavenly coronation. This is a symbolic reality, which complements the factual reality of the emperor beging crowned by the Bishop that we examined in the last issue of this same Journal. The iconographic motif of the heavenly coronation is indebted to the specific iconography of the Manus Dei, which developed during Late Antiquity.
