EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, created by the talented artist George Vertue in the 18th century, showcases a striking portrait of Richard III of England. The detailed engraving captures the essence of this medieval monarch, known for his controversial reign during the 15th century. Richard III's regal presence is evident as he stands confidently, adorned in lavish clothes and a majestic hat. A chain of office hangs from his neck, symbolizing his authority and power as king. His fingers are delicately adorned with jewelry, including an exquisite ring that adds to his royal allure. The mythical creature depicted beside him is none other than a dragon—a potent symbol representing strength and sovereignty. Its presence further emphasizes Richard III's position as a formidable ruler. George Vertue's meticulous attention to detail brings this historical figure to life on paper. Every line etched into the print reflects both artistic skill and reverence for history. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported back in time to witness the grandeur and complexity of Richard III's reign. This print serves as a testament to Vertue's talent as well as an enduring tribute to one of England's most intriguing kings—Richard III—who continues to captivate our imagination centuries later.
