Representation of Edward, the Black Prince, kneeling in veneration of the Holy Trinity
Representation of Edward, the Black Prince, kneeling in veneration of the Holy Trinity. Edward of Woodstock, Prince of Wales (1330-1376), popularly known as the Black Prince, was the eldest son of King Edward III of England and Philippa of Hainault, and father to King Richard II of England. Edward died one year before his father and so never ruled as king (becoming the first English Prince of Wales to suffer that fate). The throne passed instead to his son Richard, a minor, upon the death of Edward

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a powerful representation of Edward, the Black Prince, kneeling in deep veneration before the Holy Trinity. The figure portrayed is none other than Edward of Woodstock, Prince of Wales, who was renowned for his military prowess and noble lineage. As the eldest son of King Edward III and Philippa of Hainault, he held great potential to ascend to the throne himself. However, fate had a different plan. Edward's untimely demise one year before his father's passing marked a significant turning point in English history. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder that despite his immense influence and achievements on the battlefield, he never had the opportunity to rule as king. Instead, it was his young son Richard who inherited both his title as Prince of Wales and eventually ascended to become King Richard II. The artist beautifully captures Edward's devotion through this monochrome portrayal. His posture exudes reverence while emphasizing his role as a religious leader within society. This print not only showcases royalty but also highlights the importance placed on faith during medieval times. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from an unknown creator preserved by Heritage Images, we are transported back in time to witness an iconic moment in history - where monarchy intertwines with religion and legacy hangs delicately in balance.
