EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the historic moment when William III, also known as William of Orange, set foot on English soil for the first time on November 5, 1688. The image depicts the Dutch prince's arrival at Brixham, a small fishing town on the south coast of Devon, England. The year was momentous for the British Isles, as William had allied with the disgruntled English nobility to challenge the rule of his Catholic cousin, King James II. The print shows William III standing confidently on the deck of his ship, the "Glorious," with a determined expression on his face. Surrounded by his loyal soldiers and sailors, he gazes out at the English coastline, ready to begin his campaign to claim the English throne. In the background, the town of Brixham and its surrounding hills can be seen, with smoke rising from the chimneys of the buildings. The "Glorious" is anchored in the bay, with several other ships in the background, indicating the size and strength of William's naval force. The print also shows the English flag flying proudly from the mast of one of the ships, symbolizing the support of the English people for the Dutch prince. This historic event, known as the Glorious Revolution, marked the end of the Stuart dynasty and the beginning of a new era in British history. William III went on to defeat James II in the Battle of the Boyne in Ireland and was crowned King of England, Scotland, and Ireland in 1689. His reign marked a period of religious tolerance and political stability, and his influence can still be felt in the British monarchy today. This print is a testament to the enduring power of historical moments, and serves as a reminder of the pivotal role that Brixham and the South Coast of England played in the Glorious Revolution of 1688.
