EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases Lambert Simnel, the Knight of the Golden Tulip, from a set of playing cards dating back to the 17th century. The image portrays Simnel as an enigmatic figure, hinting at his controversial role in history. Lambert Simnel (c. 1475-1525) was a pretender to the English throne during the tumultuous War of the Roses era. This intriguing print captures his essence with meticulous detail and artistic flair. Clad in medieval attire, he brandishes a sword while donning an elaborate hat adorned with a golden tulip emblem. Simnel's story is one of audacity and deception, making him infamous as both a charlatan and conman. His attempt to claim the English crown led to intrigue and political unrest during his time. Interestingly enough, this particular set of playing cards also features scenes from the Rump Parliament. Preserved within private collections today, this engraving offers us a glimpse into an era filled with power struggles and ambitious individuals vying for control over England's destiny. As we marvel at this historical artifact captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us reflect on how art can transport us through time and immerse us in tales that continue to captivate our imagination centuries later.
