EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the regal and enigmatic figure of King Edward II, the esteemed founder of Oriel College. The portrait, based on a painting housed in the renowned Bodleian Library, has been masterfully transformed into a vibrant color engraving by an anonymous 19th-century English artist. In this striking depiction, King Edward II exudes power and authority as he stands tall with his scepter in hand. Adorned with a resplendent crown and an elegant chain of office, he epitomizes the essence of royalty. His majestic robes cascade gracefully around him, embellished with intricate details that speak to his prestigious position as king. The composition is further enhanced by symbolic elements such as the orb held delicately in his grasp—a representation of his dominion over England. The rich ermine fur lining his robe signifies luxury and nobility while adding depth to the overall image. As we gaze upon this extraordinary portrait, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever—capturing not only King Edward II's physical likeness but also hinting at the complexities that lie beneath. This remarkable print from Bridgeman Images invites us to delve into history and marvel at the enduring legacy left behind by one of Britain's influential rulers.
