EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Wars of the Roses (colour litho)" by Henry Justice Ford takes us back to a significant period in history. Depicting the emblematic red and white roses, symbolic of the fierce conflict between the houses of Lancaster and York during the 15th century, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of this tumultuous era. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every petal and leaf, showcasing his mastery in botanical illustration. The vibrant colors bring life to each rose, highlighting their significance as powerful symbols representing opposing factions. Originally created as an illustration for "The Book of Princes and Princesses" by Mrs Lang in 1908, this piece has now found its place within a private collection. Its inclusion within this prestigious collection speaks volumes about its artistic merit and historical importance. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded not only of the wars that ravaged England but also of nature's beauty amidst chaos. This artwork seamlessly combines elements from both natural history and science with its meticulous portrayal of flowers against a backdrop steeped in political turmoil. Bridgeman Images has done justice to preserving this remarkable piece through their fine art printing expertise. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst conflict, art can transcend time and transport us into different worlds – be it through history or botany.
