EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving from the 19th century captures a striking full-length portrait of Queen Mary I of England, also known as Bloody Mary. The austere and regal queen is depicted wearing an exquisite dress adorned with royal regalia, including a crown and holding a sceptre. This image showcases her power and authority as the ruler of England during the 16th century. Queen Mary I was a significant figure in history, belonging to the House of Tudor. Her reign was marked by religious conflicts between Catholicism and Protestantism in England. As a devout Catholic, she sought to restore Catholicism as the official religion of the country, leading to numerous persecutions against Protestants. The satirical nature of this engraving adds an interesting layer to its portrayal of Queen Mary I. It reflects how she was perceived by some during her time, with scathing satire aimed at her strict religious policies and actions that earned her the infamous nickname "Bloody Mary". This print provides us with a glimpse into both historical events and artistic techniques prevalent during the 16th century in Germany. Its vibrant colours bring life to this depiction of one of England's most controversial rulers.
