EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic figure of Edward The Black Prince, the eldest son of King Edward III of England. With a regal aura and a powerful presence, he stands as a symbol of both strength and tragedy in English history. Edward's untimely death, just one year before his father's passing, marked an unprecedented moment in the monarchy. He became the first English Prince of Wales who did not ascend to the throne as King of England. Born on June 5th, 1330, and departing this world on June 8th, 1376, his life spanned an era defined by conflict and turmoil. The image captures him during the tumultuous period known as the Hundred Years War (1337-1453), specifically at the Battle of Crecy in 1346. This historic confrontation between England and France is immortalized through this portrait that depicts Edward amidst a vivid battle scene. As we delve into this late fourteenth-century artwork from Germany or France—its origin shrouded in mystery—we are transported back to an age where royalty held immense power and influence over nations. The intricate details within this drawing evoke a sense of awe for its medieval craftsmanship. Edward's noble lineage is evident through his royal attire—a testament to his status as prince and future king. His visage exudes determination while hinting at underlying complexities that shaped his character. Bridgeman Images has masterfully preserved this historical gem for us to admire today—an illustration that brings forth tales from centuries past with remarkable clarity. It serves as a reminder not only of Edward The Black Prince's legacy but also highlights how art can bridge gaps between different epochs by preserving our shared heritage.
