EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this intriguing print titled "The Death of Conan" we are transported back to the 11th century, witnessing a dramatic historical event. The creator remains unknown, but their artistic prowess is evident in capturing the intensity of the scene. Henry I, King of England (1068-1135), takes center stage as he forcefully throws Conan Pilatus from Rouen Castle. This act symbolizes Henry's unwavering pursuit of justice against those involved in a conspiracy that threatened his reign. The engraving originates from "Cassells Illustrated History of England" adding an extra layer of authenticity to this moment. Set against a backdrop featuring majestic cliffs and an expansive landscape, we witness the fall of Conan Pilatus. His desperate expression portrays both fear and defiance as he plummets towards his demise. Meanwhile, a flock of birds soars above him, perhaps serving as omens or witnesses to this historic event. This image not only offers us a glimpse into medieval England but also showcases the power dynamics between monarchs and noblemen during that era. It serves as a reminder that even powerful individuals like Henry I were not immune to conspiracies and had no qualms about exacting revenge upon those who dared challenge their authority. "The Death of Conan" invites us to ponder the intricate webs woven by history while marveling at its visual representation through this striking engraving.
