EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous meeting between two influential figures of the 14th century. Joao I, the esteemed King of Portugal, can be seen entertaining John of Gaunt, the renowned Duke of Lancaster and future father-in-law. This historic encounter took place prior to Joao I's marriage to Philippa of Lancaster, an English princess who would later become Queen Consort of Portugal. The image captures a grand interior setting where a lavish banquet is being held in honor of these distinguished guests. The attire worn by both men reflects their status and power within their respective realms. Joao I dons regal robes adorned with his royal coat of arms while John of Gaunt appears resplendent in his doublet and cloak. Prince Henry, their third son who would go on to make significant contributions as an explorer himself, stands as a testament to the union between these two great nations. His mixed heritage symbolizes the bond that was formed through this marriage alliance. This remarkable photograph provides us with a glimpse into an era marked by exploration and diplomacy. It reminds us that even amidst political alliances and dynastic marriages, there were moments when leaders from different lands came together for mutual entertainment and camaraderie. Through David Divine's lens, we are able to witness history unfolding before our eyes - a truly fascinating insight into the opening chapters of our globalized world.
