Also included here is the proclamation of 4 September 1709 announcing the publication of the law. <br/><br/>On 14 November 1665 Frederik III consolidated his power over a weakened Danish nobility by promulgating the Kongelov or "King's Law" which carried absolutism to its extreme. This magnificent edition was published by Frederick Ill more than forty years after the promulgation. The engravings are by Andreas Reinhardt 1676-1742 a German artist who worked in Copenhagen after the designs of the Danish artist Moinchen. The calligraphic text is by M.A. Roeg 1679-1737 a calligrapher of Norwegian origin who later became medal engraver to Louis XV. He is probably the artist responsible for the fine calligraphic portrait of Frederick III. The text of Lex Regia was edited by Schumacher Frederick's private secretary.
