EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "PROY2A-00179" takes us back to the 17th century, specifically after the Glorious Revolution of 1688. In this hand-colored halftone reproduction of a vintage illustration, we witness William and Mary, known as "the Protestants Joy" ruling over England. The image showcases the power couple seated on their majestic thrones, adorned with regal attire and symbols of authority. The Dutch influence is evident in their European style clothing, reflecting both William's origins as Prince of Orange and his marriage to Mary Stuart. As they sit side by side, it becomes apparent that this partnership was not only one of love but also a political alliance that reshaped British history. Queen Mary II stands elegantly in her ermine robe while King William III exudes strength and determination. Their reign marked a significant turning point for Great Britain as they championed Protestantism and ensured religious tolerance within their realm. This artwork captures an era defined by monarchs who played pivotal roles in shaping English history. It serves as a reminder of the glorious revolution that brought about these changes and highlights the enduring legacy left behind by Queen Mary II and King William III during the late 17th century.
