EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant print titled "Elisabeth Woodville, la Reine d Angleterre, faisant ses adieux a ses fils" we witness a heart-wrenching moment frozen in time. Painted by Alexandre Evariste Fragonard between 1833 and 1835, the artwork captures Queen Elisabeth Woodville bidding farewell to her beloved sons, Edouard V and Richard, duke of York. The scene unfolds with an air of sorrow as the queen stands before a towering column. Her expression is one of both strength and vulnerability as she embraces her boys for what may be the last time. The artist masterfully conveys the weight of their impending separation through his use of light and shadow. Behind them stands a grief-stricken man whose presence adds another layer of emotion to the composition. Perhaps he represents an advisor or loyal subject who shares in their pain.

Through Bridgeman Images' collaboration with Fine Art Finder, we are fortunate to have access to this remarkable piece from the nineteenth century.

It serves as a timeless reminder that even those adorned
