EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases the signatures of Queen Mary I and her husband, Philip of Spain. The 19th-century print is a part of a private collection and was featured in "The Handwriting of the Kings and Queens of England" by W. J. Hardy. Queen Mary I, also known as Bloody Mary due to her harsh treatment towards Protestants, ruled England during the mid-16th century. Her signature represents her authority as queen and reflects the turbulent religious climate of that era. Philip of Spain's signature alongside hers symbolizes their marriage alliance. As a devout Catholic, Philip played a significant role in shaping English history through his influence on Queen Mary's policies. The intricate engravings capture not only their signatures but also provide an insight into the artistry behind historical documents. These handwritten marks serve as tangible connections to the past, offering glimpses into the lives and reigns of these influential figures. Through this print, we are reminded of how handwriting can be both personal and political – reflecting individual identity while also representing power dynamics within society. It serves as a testament to the importance placed on documentation during this period in European history. Overall, this engraving offers us an intriguing glimpse into one chapter of English monarchy – where religion, politics, and personal relationships intertwined to shape an era marked by controversy and change.
