A cinematic sequence set inside a monumental Gothic cathedral.
High above, a vertical shaft of light streams through the dust-filled air from a rose window. Below, a young prince kneel in royal attire before a stone altar, his head bowed.
The Goddess of Celebration appears behind them, haloed in golden light. She radiates a solemn, neoclassical dignity, her dark hair flows freely., (She wears a golden laurel wreath, and her translucent veil leaves her bosom entirely bare and exposed), reminiscent of an ancient statue. She holds a royal crown.
As she reaches the kneeling couple, she places a royal crown directly onto the prince's head. The scene is shot on 70mm film, lending rich contrast and striking clarity to this sacred gesture.
