EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "The Parliament in which Lancaster was elected King" takes us back to a significant moment in English history. Created by an anonymous English School artist from the 19th century, this print showcases a pivotal event during the reign of King Richard II. Intriguingly detailed, the artwork depicts a scene from Joseph Strutt's book "The Regal and Ecclesiastical Antiquities of England". The illustration is based on original paintings and offers a glimpse into the past. It transports us to that fateful parliamentary gathering where Henry Bolingbroke, Duke of Lancaster, was elected as King Henry IV. With its rich colors and intricate engravings, this piece captures the grandeur and solemnity of such a historic occasion. The image portrays not only political power but also hints at themes of abdication and royalty in medieval England. As we admire this artwork from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of how art can serve as a window into our collective heritage. It allows us to witness crucial moments that shaped nations and influenced generations to come. Through this print, we gain insight into European history while appreciating the artistic skill employed by both the original painter and subsequent engraver. This visual representation invites contemplation on monarchy, politics, culture, and their enduring impact on society throughout time.
