EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the powerful and defiant portrait of Queen Boadicea, engraved by John Thomas in the 19th century. The image depicts Queen Boadicea standing tall on a shield and sword, holding up a dagger in her right hand as she fiercely protects two young women kneeling beside her. This remarkable illustration was featured in The Art Journal of 1857. Queen Boadicea's commanding presence is evident through her regal stature and determined expression. Her unwavering strength symbolizes the resilience of women throughout history. As a tribal queen leading the Iceni people against Roman rule, she became an emblematic figure for bravery and rebellion. The engraving beautifully captures intricate details, showcasing the skillful craftsmanship of Richard Austin Artlett. Every line etched into this artwork brings forth a sense of realism that allows viewers to connect with Queen Boadicea's story on a deeper level. Displayed within this private collection, this portrait serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy left behind by extraordinary individuals who challenged societal norms and fought for their beliefs. It stands as both an homage to Queen Boadicea's royal lineage and an inspiration for future generations to embrace their own inner strength.
