EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of historical seals belonging to English royalty. The image features Henry II's First Seal, along with its corresponding Counterseal, as well as Henry II's Second Seal and its Counterseal. Also included are the seals of Henry Junior and Richard I, each accompanied by their own Counterseals.
These intricate seals serve as important symbols of authority and power during medieval times, representing the official stamp of approval from the monarch. They were used to authenticate documents, letters, and decrees issued by the royal court.
Captured by an English photographer in the 19th century, this photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of England through these meticulously crafted seals. The detailed engravings on each seal tell a story of lineage, succession, and sovereignty within the monarchy.
Displayed in a private collection, this print is part of a larger series documenting "The Great Seals of England" by Alfred Benjamin Wyon and Allan Wyon. It serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy left behind by these iconic rulers from centuries past.
