EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the 15th century, where we catch a glimpse of Warwick the Kingmaker, an influential English nobleman and soldier. Standing tall in his armor, he holds a shield and sword with great authority. This image captures the essence of power and strength that characterized this remarkable figure. Warwick's life came to a tragic end at the Battle of Barnet on April 14,1471 during the Wars of the Roses. These wars were fought between two powerful houses, Lancaster and York, both vying for control over England's throne. Warwick played a pivotal role in these conflicts as one of its key players. The Rous Roll of the Earls of Warwick serves as our window into history by preserving this illustration from A Short History of the English People by John Richard Green. Published in 1893, this illustrated edition allows us to appreciate not only Warwick's significance but also provides insight into medieval politics and warfare. As we gaze upon this portrait-like photograph, we are reminded of Warwick's influence as a politician and statesman during turbulent times. His legacy lives on through his strategic maneuvers on behalf of his chosen factions. This print is more than just an artistic representation; it symbolizes an era defined by political intrigue, military prowess, and ambition for power.
