EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic moment of the Proclamation of George I as King of Great Britain and Ireland in 1714. Painted by W Thomas, it beautifully captures the essence of this significant event in British history. George, Elector of Hanover and Duke of Brunswick-Luneburg, ascended to the British throne under the Act of Settlement of 1701, which required a Protestant monarch. As the first Hanoverian King, George I ruled over Great Britain and Ireland from 1714 until his passing in 1727. The image portrays King George I on horseback, symbolizing his authority and power as he proclaims his reign to the people. The scene is set on a bustling street in London, England - a fitting location for such an important announcement. The print not only highlights George I's role but also provides insight into eighteenth-century Britain. It offers glimpses into both German and British cultures through references to Hanoverian heritage and symbols associated with monarchy. W Thomas skillfully crafted this engraving with meticulous attention to detail, capturing every nuance that makes this historical moment come alive. This artwork serves as a testament to both artistic talent and historical significance. Preserved by Heritage Images, this remarkable piece allows us to reflect upon an era when nations were shaped by powerful leaders like King George I - forever leaving their mark on history.
