EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a medieval stained glass depiction of Queen Elizabeth Woodville and her daughters, situated in the North Window of Canterbury Cathedral. Created by artist CM Dixon in the 20th century, this artwork beautifully portrays Elizabeth's pious nature as she is shown praying opposite her husband, King Edward IV. The vibrant colors of the stained glass add to the overall splendor of this piece. Canterbury Cathedral itself holds immense historical significance as one of England's oldest and most renowned Christian structures. Completed around 1482 during the Middle Ages, it stands as a testament to centuries of religious devotion. In this image, Queen Elizabeth kneels before a window adorned with intricate stained glass while her children stand behind her. The scene exudes a sense of family unity and reverence for their faith. As members of royalty during the fifteenth century, they were not only figures of power but also devout Christians. The photograph allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating such detailed stained glass windows and the religious devotion that was an integral part of daily life during this time period. It serves as a reminder that even amidst royal duties and responsibilities, prayer played an essential role in their lives. With its rich history and cultural significance, this print offers viewers a glimpse into medieval England through its portrayal of Queen Elizabeth Woodville and her family within Canterbury Cathedral's hallowed walls.
