EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "The Dukes of Norfolk and Suffolk demanding the Great Seal of Cardinal Wolsey, 1529" takes us back to a pivotal moment in English history. The image depicts an intense confrontation between two powerful dukes and the influential Cardinal Thomas Wolsey during the reign of Henry VIII. In this scene, we witness a clash between religion, politics, and power as the Duke of Norfolk and the Duke of Suffolk demand that Cardinal Wolsey surrender his position as Lord Chancellor by handing over the Great Seal. The tension is palpable as these figures embody conflicting interests within 16th-century England. The print's monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this historical narrative, emphasizing the gravity of their actions. It transports us to a time when Catholicism held significant influence in British society but was gradually being challenged by emerging Protestant ideals. Through this artwork, we glimpse into Tudor-era Britain - a period marked by religious turmoil and political upheaval. We witness not only Cardinal Wolsey's disgrace but also gain insight into the intricate web woven by royal power struggles. Created in 1793 by Charles Alfred Ashburton for his History of England publication, this engraving serves as both an educational tool and a visual representation of one crucial episode from our nation's past.
