EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fetched back to London" takes us on a historical journey, capturing a significant moment in the peregrinations of the Syon Nuns. Compiled in Lisbon during the early 17th century, this vellum artwork showcases the Portuguese School's talent and attention to detail. The image portrays an intriguing scene where King Philip II of Spain brings nuns back from exile in Flanders after his marriage to Queen Mary of England. The Duke of Norfolk, housed at Arundel Castle, proudly displays this piece as part of his collection. In this illustration, we witness a ship gracefully sailing along the River Thames with religious significance. A group of female figures can be seen kneeling onboard, representing the Bridgettine Order and symbolizing their devotion and loyalty. The artist skillfully captures both regality and spirituality within this composition. The presence of Spanish monarchs adds an air of royalty to the scene while emphasizing their influence over religious matters during that era. As we delve into history through this mesmerizing print, it becomes evident how art has preserved moments that shaped our past. This remarkable depiction serves as a testament to the power art holds in immortalizing important events for generations to come.
