EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic moment of Henry IV's coronation at Westminster, marking his ascent as the first Lancastrian king of England in 1399. The image captures the essence of this significant event, with men joyfully playing musical instruments amidst borders illuminated with intricate foliage, vibrant flowers, and graceful birds. This exquisite scene is reminiscent of a 15th-century manuscript by Froissart, offering us a glimpse into the artistic beauty and cultural richness of that era. Henry IV was born as Henry Bolingbroke in Lincolnshire to John of Gaunt. His journey from birthplace to becoming a monarch is an intriguing tale deeply rooted in British history. As he takes on his role as king, we witness his strong connection to both religion and music through these musicians surrounding him during his coronation ceremony. The botanical elements depicted in this artwork also reflect Henry IV's interest in botany and horticulture. Amongst the lush foliage are columbine flowers (aquilegia), symbolizing royalty and grace – fitting for a man who would lead England during such transformative times. This remarkable print not only immortalizes an important chapter in British history but also serves as a reminder of how art can beautifully intertwine with politics, religion, nature, and culture.
