EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the regal presence of James II of England, a prominent figure in the 17th and 18th centuries. Created by renowned artist Reynolds Grignion, this portrait captures the essence of James II, who ascended to the throne following his brother's demise. Dressed in an opulent fur-trimmed robe adorned with ermine, James II exudes power and authority. The coat of arms proudly displayed on his attire symbolizes his royal lineage and heritage. Holding an orb and scepter in hand, he epitomizes the majesty associated with monarchs. The engraving skillfully brings out every intricate detail of King James II's countenance - from his stern expression to his well-groomed beard. This monochrome masterpiece transports us back to a time when kings ruled over vast empires. Samuel Wale's contribution as an illustrator for Raymonds History of England adds historical significance to this print. Through this collaboration between Grignion, Wale, and King James II himself, we are granted a glimpse into one man's journey from being Charles I's second surviving son to becoming king. As we admire this remarkable portrayal of royalty, it serves as a reminder that history is not merely confined within textbooks but can be brought alive through artistry such as Reynolds Grignion's masterful creation.
