King Richard I (1157-1199), forgiving Bertrannd De Gurdun, late 19th century. Richard was King of England from 1189 to 1199. He was known as Richard the Lionheart, or C?ur de Lion, even before his accession because of his military reputation. He spent little of his reign in England, setting out on the Third Crusade in 1190, and from 1194 onwards fighting to regain territories in France. He remains one of the very few Kings of England remembered by reputation, not number

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a powerful moment in history, depicting King Richard I of England forgiving Bertrannd De Gurdun. Created by artist Thomas Brown in the late 19th century, this image portrays the iconic monarch known as Richard the Lionheart or Cœur de Lion. King Richard I reigned from 1189 to 1199 and was renowned for his military prowess even before ascending to the throne. His reputation as a fearless crusader earned him great respect among his subjects. However, he spent little time in England during his reign, embarking on the Third Crusade in 1190 and later engaging in battles to reclaim territories in France. Despite being remembered more for his legendary exploits than specific historical events, this print showcases an act of forgiveness that reveals another side of King Richard's character. The engraving depicts him standing beside Bertrannd De Gurdun, symbolizing mercy and compassion amidst the backdrop of religious conflict. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this scene set within a royal bedchamber – a private space where decisions affecting nations were made. This print serves as a reminder of both King Richard's Christian faith and his role as a sovereign leader during turbulent times. Preserved by The Print Collector, this artwork allows us to reflect on one of England's most celebrated kings who left an indelible mark on history through bravery, chivalry, and now forgiveness captured forever in this remarkable image by Thomas Brown.
