EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent sculpture of Boadicea, created by Thomas Thornycroft in the 1850s. The bronze masterpiece stands proudly on Victoria Embankment in London, UK, serving as a powerful symbol of strength and resistance. Boadicea, also known as Boudicca or Boadicee, was an iconic queen of the Iceni tribe who led a courageous rebellion against Roman rule in ancient Britain. This remarkable artwork captures her essence with great detail and precision. The artist borrowed horses from Prince Albert himself to create lifelike models for this extraordinary sculpture. The result is a breathtaking depiction of Boadicea standing atop her chariot, ready to lead her daughters into battle. Unveiled to the public in 1902, this monumental statue has become an enduring emblem of female empowerment and defiance. Its presence on Victoria Embankment serves as a constant reminder of the indomitable spirit that resides within us all. As part of The Stapleton Collection, this particular print preserves not only the artistic brilliance but also the historical significance behind Thornycroft's work. With its timeless appeal and rich symbolism, it continues to inspire generations with its portrayal of bravery and determination.
