EDITORS COMMENTS

Created by Arthur Moreland in 1905, this colorful print depicts the infamous King Richard III meeting his demise on the battlefield at Bosworth in 1485. In this comical illustration for "Humors of History". Moreland brings to life the clash between Richard's forces and those led by Henry Tudor.

With its clever caricatures and witty commentary, this artwork offers a lighthearted take on a significant event. The artist's use of vivid colors adds depth and energy to the composition, making it visually engaging. The horses charge forward with determination while wild racehorses add an element of excitement to the scene. Amidst all the action, Richard Crookback himself stands out as he faces his ultimate defeat. Moreland's satirical approach invites viewers to reflect on power struggles throughout history while also providing entertainment through visual comedy. This print serves as both an amusing piece and a reminder that even great rulers can meet their downfall. Displayed within private collections worldwide, "The End of Richard Crookback" continues to captivate audiences with its blend of historical significance and humorous storytelling.
