EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases King Edward III of England, a prominent figure from the 14th century. Created by the talented artist George Vertue, this engraving beautifully captures the essence of this medieval monarch. King Edward III's reign spanned an impressive fifty years, making him one of the most successful English kings in history. His rule began when his father was deposed in 1327 and lasted until his death in 1377. This portrait depicts him as a powerful and regal figure, with a long beard and wearing a crown adorned with symbols of authority. The image also highlights some significant elements associated with King Edward III's reign. The flag proudly displayed behind him represents England's ongoing conflict with France during that time period. Additionally, he is depicted holding a sceptre and sword, symbolizing his role as both ruler and warrior. Notably, King Edward III was instrumental in establishing the Order of the Garter, which is represented by the emblem on his robe. This prestigious chivalric order continues to exist today as one of Britain's highest honors. George Vertue skillfully captured all these details within this monochrome print, showcasing not only historical accuracy but also artistic brilliance. It serves as a remarkable tribute to an influential king whose legacy has left an indelible mark on English history.
