EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Edward I, the formidable King of England from 1272. Created by talented artist Rosalind Thornycroft in 1932, this portrait beautifully captures the essence of this influential monarch. Known for his towering height of 6 foot 2 inches and his ruthless military tactics against Scotland, Edward earned the nickname "Longshanks" and "the Hammer of the Scots". Ascending to the throne on November 21,1272 following his father's death, Henry III, Edward I left an indelible mark on English history. Clad in regal attire befitting a king, he exudes power and authority in this image. The intricate details of his clothing and weaponry reflect both medieval fashion and warfare. The print is part of a larger work titled Kings and Queens by Eleanor and Herbert Farjeon. Illustrated with great skill by Rosalind Thornycroft, it offers viewers a glimpse into the lives of British royalty throughout different centuries. Edward I's reign was marked by significant political reforms that strengthened central governance while also expanding England's territories through conquests. His legacy as a ruler remains influential even today. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to not only Edward I's reign but also to the artistic talent that brings historical figures back to life through visual representation.
