Queen Margaret with son and robber
Queen Margaret of Anjou, wife of King Henry VI, fleeing into a forest after the Battle of Hexham (15 May 1464, Wars of the Roses) with her son, Prince Edward, meets a robber and asks for protection. This legend has little basis in reality, as Margaret was not in England at the time of the battle.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the legendary tale of Queen Margaret of Anjou, the resilient and determined wife of King Henry VI, seeking refuge in a forest after the Battle of Hexham in 1464 during the tumultuous Wars of the Roses. In this scene, Margaret, accompanied by her young son, Prince Edward, encounters a rough and menacing robber. Despite their initial fear, the queen bravely implores the man for protection, demonstrating her unwavering courage and resourcefulness in the face of adversity. Queen Margaret of Anjou, a formidable figure in her own right, was known for her fierce loyalty to her husband and her tenacity in defending his claim to the English throne against the Yorkist forces led by the Earl of Warwick. However, the historical accuracy of this particular story is questionable, as there is no concrete evidence that Margaret was present at the Battle of Hexham or that she sought refuge in a forest with her son. This intriguing legend, which has captivated the imagination of historians and storytellers for centuries, highlights the enduring power of the human spirit and the indomitable will of a mother to protect her child, even in the most treacherous of circumstances. The image of Queen Margaret and her son, seeking sanctuary from a robber in the forest, serves as a poignant reminder of the challenges and uncertainties faced by those caught up in the turbulent events of the 1460s English civil war.
