EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a powerful moment in history, depicting Boadicea haranguing the Britons. Engraved by Sharp and illustrated from David Hume's The History of England, this artwork transports us back to London in 1812. The image portrays Boadicea, Queen of the Iceni tribe, as she rallies her people against the Roman Empire. With determination etched on her face and clad in an impressive helmet, she stands tall as a symbol of female strength and rebellion. Boadicea's daughters flank her on either side, embodying the next generation ready to fight for their freedom. Armed with spears and other ancient weapons, they represent the indomitable spirit of resistance against oppression. The artist John Opie masterfully captures the intensity of this historical moment through his intricate engraving technique. Every detail is meticulously rendered, allowing us to immerse ourselves in this pivotal event that shaped Roman Britain. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Stapleton Collection, we are reminded of Boadicea's legacy as a fearless warrior and leader. Her name has become synonymous with courage and defiance throughout history. This print serves as a testament to Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving important works like these that showcase not only artistic excellence but also shed light on significant moments in our collective past.
