EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving, we are transported back in time to witness a poignant moment between Edward, the Black Prince, and his wife Joan of Kent. The scene depicts Edward recounting the Battle of Poitiers to his beloved spouse, as they sit together in what appears to be a private chamber. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable, capturing the intensity on Edward's face as he relives the triumphs and challenges of that historic battle. His armor-clad figure exudes strength and authority, while Joan listens attentively with a mixture of pride and concern etched upon her features. This engraving is taken from "The New, Impartial and Complete History of England" by Edward Barnard published in 1790. It offers us a glimpse into an important chapter of English history during the 14th century. The Battle of Poitiers was a significant victory for Edward III's forces against France during the Hundred Years' War. The black-and-white aesthetic adds an air of authenticity to this historical artwork. It transports us back to an era when chivalry reigned supreme and love stories unfolded amidst tumultuous times. Edward's recounting not only highlights his military prowess but also showcases his deep connection with Joan - their bond strengthened through shared experiences on both battlefield and homefront. This print serves as a testament to their enduring love amidst the chaos of war. Overall, this engraving beautifully captures a tender moment between two historical figures whose lives were intertwined by duty, honor, and love.
