EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history during the War of Roses, showcasing the clandestine meeting between King Edward IV and Elisabeth Woodville in 1464. The image depicts King Edward IV calling in at Grafton, the residence of the Duchess of Bedford and her second husband, Richard Wodeville (Lord Rivers), during a hunting excursion in the forest of Wychwood. It was here that King Edward IV encountered Lady Elizabeth Grey, widow of Sir John Grey, a Lancastrian noble, and instantly fell in love with her. Despite their differing allegiances, they defied societal norms and were married secretly later that year. The illustration from "A Chronicle-of-England" by James Doyle beautifully captures the romance and intrigue surrounding this forbidden union. The delicate details and expressions on their faces convey a sense of longing and passion as they embark on their journey together amidst political turmoil. This historical moment marked a turning point in both their lives as well as the course of English history. The print serves as a reminder of love's ability to transcend boundaries and defy expectations even amidst tumultuous times like those experienced during the War of Roses.
