EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history, depicting the Earl of Northumberland delivering his deceitful message to Richard II within the walls of Conway Castle. The image is a facsimile copy from "Le Prinse et mort du Roy Richart" by Jean Creton, reprinted in the 19th century as a stunning color lithograph. The scene takes us back to the 14th century, where betrayal and political intrigue were rife. In this illustration, we witness the nobleman Henry Percy, also known as the Earl of Northumberland (1341-1408), cunningly presenting his false message to King Richard II (1367-1400). The artist's attention to detail brings out every nuance on their faces and showcases their regal attire. Conway Castle itself provides an impressive backdrop for this historic encounter. Located in Conwy, Wales, its imposing structure adds drama and grandeur to the composition. The late 19th-century reproduction faithfully captures both its architectural beauty and historical significance. This remarkable piece belongs to the Historica Graphica Collection and was created by Virgil Master (c1309-1420), an accomplished artist renowned for his skillful illustrations. Its vivid colors bring life to this centuries-old event while preserving its authenticity.
