EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts King Richard III of England at the fateful Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485. The historical moment is rendered in a splendidly stylized manner, showcasing the monarch's unwavering determination and desperation in the face of defeat. Richard III, dressed in his armor and donning a helmet adorned with a feathered crest, sits confidently atop his horse. His steed, equally armored, rears up, its hooves poised to charge forward. The king's expression is intense, his eyes fixed on the horizon, as if willing his troops to stand firm against the advancing forces of Henry Tudor. The background of the print is filled with the chaos of battle. Smoke rises from the field, obscuring the horizon, while the clash of swords and cries of soldiers fill the air. Arrows fly through the sky, piercing the air as they seek their targets. The sense of urgency and impending doom is palpable. Despite the odds stacked against him, King Richard III remains resolute, his determination unbroken. This powerful image serves as a poignant reminder of the courage and tenacity of one of England's most controversial monarchs. The Battle of Bosworth Field marked the end of the Plantagenet dynasty and the beginning of the Tudor era. Richard III, last of the Plantagenets, was killed in the battle, and his body was later discovered under a car park in Leicester in 2012. This print offers a unique and captivating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of war, politics, and intrigue. The detailed and intricately designed image is a testament to the rich history of England and the enduring legacy of its monarchs.
