EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, created by the English School in the 19th century, showcases a remarkable historical artifact. The print features a helmet discovered at Bosworth Field, alongside a flexible cuirass made of metal laminae on leather, both believed to have once belonged to King Henry VIII. The illustration is taken from Francis Grose's renowned work "Military Antiquities. . " published in 1812. Copperplate engraved by J. Hamilton, this piece offers an intricate depiction of these ancient relics that played significant roles in England's military history. Dating back to the 15th century during the Wars of the Roses (1455-1485), these items symbolize warfare and power during the Middle Ages. They provide us with valuable insights into the armor used by soldiers and royalty alike. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine King Henry VIII donning this very helmet as he led his troops into battle. It evokes images of fierce clashes between rival factions vying for control over England. With its attention to detail and historical accuracy, this engraving serves as a testament to Francis Grose's dedication to documenting English military history.
