EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative 9th century image, an Anglo-Saxon king proudly dons his State Habit, a grand ensemble reserved for formal occasions and public appearances. The monarch wears a rich blue tunic, the hem of which is intricately embroidered with delicate designs, adding a touch of elegance and opulence to his regal attire. The king's upper body is further adorned with a voluminous mantle, secured at the shoulder with a magnificent gold and gem-encrusted brooch. The mantle, draped elegantly over his shoulders, provides both warmth and a sense of grandeur, while the brooch serves as a symbol of his power and authority. The king's lower body is covered by red hose, held up by gold criss-cross leg bandages, which not only protect his legs during battles but also add a striking visual element to his outfit. Completing the ensemble, the king wears a square crown, its simple yet elegant design reflecting the Anglo-Saxon preference for understated yet effective symbolism. The king sits majestically on his throne, his expression radiating confidence and wisdom, while he holds a sceptre in his right hand, a symbol of his royal power and rule. The image captures the essence of Anglo-Saxon royalty during the 9th century, a time of political intrigue, cultural development, and military might. This striking photograph, with its intricate details and authentic recreation of Anglo-Saxon regalia, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when kings ruled with a mixture of power, pride, and tradition.
