EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the moment when Richard II, King of England (1367-1399), sets out on his expedition to Ireland in 1394. Richard, dressed in regal attire and wearing a crown adorned with precious stones, stands confidently on the deck of a ship, surrounded by his loyal knights and soldiers. The rough sea and ominous sky in the background hint at the challenges that lie ahead, yet Richard's determined expression and the raised standard bearing the fleur-de-lis symbol of the Plantagenet dynasty suggest that he is ready to face whatever obstacles may come his way. Richard's reign, which began in 1377, was marked by political instability and conflict, both at home and abroad. One of his main objectives during his reign was to assert his authority over Ireland, which had been a source of rebellion and unrest for decades. In 1394, he led a large army and navy to Ireland, intending to put down the rebellion and reassert English control over the country. The details of this expedition are described in great detail by the contemporary chronicler Jean Froissart, who was a witness to the events. Froissart's account provides valuable insights into the logistics of medieval military campaigns, as well as the political and diplomatic considerations that shaped Richard's decision to invade Ireland. This print, which is part of the extensive collection of historical images available at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past and provides a visual representation of an important moment in English history. The image not only captures the grandeur and majesty of the medieval monarch, but also the sense of adventure and danger that accompanied such expeditions in the late medieval period.
