EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating illustration titled "This, in the name of God, I promise here" takes us back to the enchanting world of Shakespeare's stories of the English Kings. Published by George Harrap & Son in 1912, this colour lithograph by Gertrude E. Demain Hammond beautifully captures a pivotal moment in history. Seated on his majestic throne, King Henry IV of England is depicted making a solemn declaration. Surrounded by an air of authority and wisdom, he addresses his subjects with unwavering determination. The artist skillfully portrays the weighty responsibility that rests upon the shoulders of a ruler. Intriguingly, this artwork also hints at the future reign of Henry V, as he stands beside his father. With an expression filled with anticipation and resolve, young Prince Hal listens attentively to his father's words. This scene foreshadows the transformative journey that awaits him as he ascends to become one of England's most celebrated kings. Gertrude E. Demain Hammond expertly brings these historical figures to life through her meticulous attention to detail and vibrant use of color. Her children's illustration not only educates but also captivates viewers with its rich storytelling elements. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Shakespeare's tales, we are reminded once again that history is not merely a collection of facts; it is a tapestry woven together by individuals who shape their destinies through promises made in God's name.
