EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Flight of James 2nd" takes us back to a significant moment in history, as depicted in David Hume's The History of England. This engraving, created by an English School artist in the 18th century, showcases the dramatic escape attempt of King James II from England to France on December 11th, 1688. In this scene, we witness the defeated ruler discreetly boarding a rowing boat at a quay. With his royal status and Great Britain's fate hanging in the balance, James II embarks on this daring journey towards exile. The failed attempt marks a pivotal event known as the Glorious Revolution. The image captures both the tension and determination present during this clandestine departure. As James II flees under cover of darkness, one can almost feel his desperation to evade capture and preserve his reign. The jetty serves as a backdrop for this historical moment that forever altered British history. This artwork not only commemorates an important chapter in England's past but also highlights the skillful craftsmanship of its creator. Through intricate details and masterful engravings, it brings to life an era long gone yet still resonating with intrigue and fascination. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Private Collection, we are transported back to seventeenth-century England—a time when power struggles shaped nations and individuals made choices that would reverberate throughout history.
