EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Prince Rupert at Oxford, as he prepares to embark on a fierce battle. The illustration, taken from "A History of England" by C. R. L. Fletcher and Rudyard Kipling in 1911, showcases the renowned prince in all his regal glory. Prince Rupert, the nephew of Charles I, stands tall and proud amidst a sea of loyal soldiers. His commanding presence exudes strength and determination as he waves his hand with unwavering confidence. Clad in royalist attire, he symbolizes the resilience and bravery of those who fought for their beliefs during the English Civil Wars. The image not only portrays Prince Rupert's military prowess but also highlights his connection with nature. Surrounded by majestic horses that represent both wildlife and farm animals alike, there is an air of harmony between man and beast. This juxtaposition emphasizes the unity required to face adversity head-on. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece captured by Henry Justice Ford, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in English history. The scene evokes feelings of anticipation and camaraderie among these valiant soldiers ready to defend their cause. In this private collection piece from Bridgeman Images' archives, we are reminded of the sacrifices made during times of conflict while celebrating the courage displayed by individuals like Prince Rupert who stood firm against adversity.
