EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a contemporary painting of King Richard III, created by the talented artist Karen Humpage in 2013. Inspired by the facial reconstruction based on the discovery of the King's body at Greyfriars Church in Leicester in 2012, this artwork beautifully captures his regal presence. The painting is executed in the style reminiscent of popular early 16th-century portraits of the monarch. In this portrayal, King Richard III stands tall and dignified, wearing royal robes adorned with intricate details. His majestic hat adds an air of authority to his appearance. The artist skillfully incorporates vibrant colors that bring life to this historical figure from England's past. The location where Richard III was discovered - a car park - serves as a poignant reminder of how history can be uncovered even in unexpected places. As Duke of Gloucester and Lord Protector during his reign, he played a significant role within the House of York and Plantagenet dynasty. Karen Humpage's acrylic portrait not only pays homage to one of England's most enigmatic kings but also reflects her artistic prowess and attention to detail. This print allows us to appreciate both her talent and Richard III's enduring legacy as a sovereign ruler.
