EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to a significant moment in history - the aftermath of the Battle of Worcester. King Charles II, disguised and riding towards Wilton, is captured on the Icknield Road, near his destination. The image portrays a scene filled with tension and intrigue. In this snapshot from The Illustrated London News Christmas Number of 1933, we witness an extraordinary encounter between the king and his adversaries, the Roundheads. As Charles II passes by them unnoticed, one cannot help but wonder about the thoughts racing through their minds. Were they aware that their enemy was right before them? Or did they simply see another traveler on this ancient Roman road? The composition beautifully captures both the serenity of nature and the weighty historical context surrounding this clandestine journey. The lush greenery frames Charles II as he moves stealthily towards safety at Wilton. His disguise successfully conceals his true identity from those who would seek to capture him. Hilary Jane Morgan's skillful photography transports us into this pivotal moment in British history. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and conflict, there are moments when individuals must rely on cunning tactics to survive. This print not only offers aesthetic pleasure but also invites contemplation about power dynamics and resilience during times of adversity – themes that resonate across generations.
