EDITORS COMMENTS
Edward IV, King of England, 1860. This portrait captures the regal presence of Edward IV, the esteemed monarch who reigned from 1461 to 1483. The engraving showcases his dignified stature and noble countenance, transporting us back to the vibrant era of medieval England. Intriguingly juxtaposed beneath Edward's imposing figure is a scene depicting Lady Elizabeth Grey, his future wife. Clad in exquisite medieval attire and adorned with an elegant hat, she is shown fervently interceding for her children. This poignant moment foreshadows their eventual union in 1464. The print itself exudes a sense of historical significance as it was created during the nineteenth century by O'Deá Únaighéil (not the company). Its monochrome aesthetic adds depth and timelessness to this portrayal of fifteenth-century royalty. As we delve into this artwork, we are transported to a bygone era where power dynamics intertwined with love stories. It serves as a reminder that even amidst political turmoil and royal obligations, personal connections can shape destinies. This remarkable image not only celebrates Edward IV's reign but also sheds light on Lady Elizabeth Grey's pivotal role in shaping English history. It stands as a testament to their enduring legacy within the Plantagenet dynasty.
