EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century lithograph transports us back to the medieval era, offering a glimpse into a significant historical moment. The scene unfolds within the grand interiors of Chester Castle, where two noble dukes are entrusted with delivering an important message from the King to their esteemed counterpart, the Duke of Lancaster. Clad in splendid armor that reflects their status and power, these men embody chivalry and honor. The first Duke of Exeter, known for his military prowess and loyalty to the crown, stands alongside the first Duke of Surrey. Both figures exude authority as they prepare to fulfill their duty. The atmosphere is richly detailed; every stone in this castellated castle seems to whisper tales of centuries past. Vibrant colors bring life to this lithograph reproduction from Jean Creton's renowned work "Le Prinse et mort du Roy Richart" which chronicles the capture and death of King Richard II. Intriguing relationships unfold within this image: John Holland, half-brother to Richard II and uncle to Thomas Holland - both noblemen who played pivotal roles during this tumultuous period. Their nephew, John of Gaunt (Duke of Lancaster), awaits eagerly for news that could shape his destiny. As we gaze upon this historic tableau captured by Virgil Master's skilled hand over a century ago, we are reminded once again that history lives on through art – preserving moments like these for generations yet unborn.
