EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting engraving, published in The Universe Illustrated in 1863, captures a significant moment in the complex relationship between two influential figures of the Tudor era: Cardinal Thomas Wolsey and the Duke of Buckingham, John de Vere, 13th Earl of Oxford and 16th Earl of Buckingham. The image, richly colored, transports us back to the 3rd decade of the 16th century in Britain. Cardinal Wolsey, dressed in his full regalia, stands tall and imposing, his expression stern yet resolute. He holds a large cross, symbolizing his religious authority and power. The Duke of Buckingham, on the other hand, is depicted in the company of two friars, his posture relaxed and conversational. The scene takes place in an interior setting, possibly a grand hall or a monastery, adding to the sense of importance and solemnity. The relationship between Wolsey and Buckingham was marked by political intrigue and shifting alliances. Buckingham was initially a supporter of Wolsey, but their alliance soured when Wolsey attempted to seize Buckingham's lands and influence. This engraving may depict a moment of reconciliation or a negotiation between the two men, highlighting the intricate web of power and politics that defined the Tudor court. The engraving, with its vibrant colors and intricate details, is a testament to the artistic skill of the engraver and the historical significance of the scene it depicts. It offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when religion, politics, and power intertwined in the courts of Europe.
