EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "A Royal Picnic, 1575" we are transported back to the Elizabethan era, immersing ourselves in the grandeur and elegance of a royal gathering. The scene depicts Queen Elizabeth I herself, resplendent in her iconic attire, enjoying a leisurely picnic amidst the picturesque English countryside. The queen's magnificent hat steals the spotlight with its tall cylindrical crown adorned with plumes and jewels. Her regal presence is complemented by courtiers and attendants who surround her as they partake in an indulgent feast. Baskets filled with delectable food, including succulent meats and poultry, are scattered around them while barrels of wine add to the merriment. As we observe this snapshot from history captured by Emily Jessie Ashdown and George Turberville, it becomes evident that even monarchs relished moments of relaxation away from their duties. The atmosphere exudes joyous camaraderie as both men and women engage in lively conversation while pouring drinks into elegant jugs. This black-and-white image transports us through time, allowing us to witness not only the lavishness of royal life but also glimpse into the cultural customs of 16th-century England. It serves as a reminder that even those who hold great power can find solace in simple pleasures such as sharing a meal outdoors. With every detail meticulously preserved within this print collector's masterpiece, we are granted an intimate glimpse into Queen Elizabeth I's world - one where she could momentarily escape her responsibilities and revel in the beauty of nature alongside her loyal subjects.
