EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures the historic moment of William the Conqueror founding the iconic Tower of London in the 11th century. Created by Amedee Forestier in the 1920s, this print showcases his exceptional talent for depicting historical scenes with intricate detail and a sense of grandeur. In this scene, we witness King William overseeing the construction and inspection of what would become one of England's most famous landmarks. The artist skillfully portrays the king as a commanding figure, dressed in regal attire and surrounded by workers diligently carrying out their tasks. The Tower itself stands tall and imposing, its architectural beauty evident even in black and white. Forestier's lithograph is not only visually stunning but also historically significant. It was originally published as an illustration in Hutchinsons Story of the British Nation, a comprehensive account of Britain's rich history. This artwork serves as a reminder of our nation's past, highlighting important moments that have shaped our present. Now part of a private collection, this print allows us to appreciate Forestier's artistic prowess while immersing ourselves in English history. Whether you are fascinated by architecture or intrigued by royal lineage, this lithograph offers a glimpse into an era long gone but forever preserved through art.
