EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Cranmer at Traitors Gate, 1553" captures a significant moment in history. Thomas Cranmer, the archbishop of Canterbury during the reigns of Henry VIII and Edward VI, is depicted in this artwork. Cranmer played a crucial role in separating the Church of England from the Holy See. Painted by Frederick Goodall in 1856, this oil on panel piece measures 45.7cm x 74.8cm and now resides at the V & A Museum in London, UK. The image was taken from Cassell's History of England vol. ii and can be found facing page 225. The painting portrays Cranmer standing before Traitors Gate at the Tower of London during the Tudor period. This gate holds historical significance as it was used to bring prisoners into the Tower for their execution or imprisonment. This artwork showcases both fine artistry and historical context. It offers viewers a glimpse into one of Britain's most transformative eras – when religious reformations were taking place under Tudor rule. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable print through Fine Art Finder, allowing art enthusiasts to appreciate its beauty and historical importance. As we observe Cranmer standing resolute before Traitors Gate, we are reminded of his pivotal role in shaping British history during a time of great change and upheaval.
