"The Earl of Richmond: A Symbolic Figure in the Reunion of York and Lancaster" In the tumultuous era of the Houses of York and Lancaster, one name emerged as a beacon of hope for a fractured kingdom - the Earl of Richmond. With origins deeply rooted in both houses, his genealogy traced back to Edward III, making him a pivotal figure in the quest for unity. The Battle of Bosworth became an iconic moment where Richard III faced off against the Earl of Richmond. Depicted vividly in chromolithographs, this clash represented more than just a military confrontation; it symbolized the struggle between two dynasties vying for power. But there was more to the Earl than his role on the battlefield. Isabella Stewart, Duchess of Brittany and wife to Francis I, Le Bien-Aime Duke of Brittany and Earl of Richmond, showcased their coat-of-arms proudly on her dress. Their union not only solidified alliances but also highlighted their prestigious lineage. The legacy continued with Arthur III Duke of Brittany and Earl of Richmond. As connetable (constable)of France during turbulent times, he played a crucial role in shaping history. Handcoloured lithographs immortalized his portrait by Leopold Massard from Roger de Gaignieres' portfolio VI 36. The significance surrounding these figures extended beyond family ties or military conquests; it encompassed political maneuvering as well. The house that sheltered the Earl before Bosworth - Shrewsbury - became an emblematic location depicted through lithography. Shakespeare's portrayal further elevated Henry VII's journey from being Henry, Earl Of Richmond to becoming King after Bosworth. His entrance into Shrewsbury overcame adversity and marked a turning point towards stability within England's borders. With crown firmly placed upon his head at Bosworth Field, Henry VII brought forth an era filled with promise and renewal. Hutchinson's illustrations captured this historic moment, showcasing the coronation that solidified his reign.
