EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - King Charles II hiding up an oak tree in Boscobel Wood, after the Battle of Worcester in 1651. The image depicts a Parliamentarian or Roundhead soldier interrogating a local Royalist family, desperately searching for the whereabouts of the elusive king. Meanwhile, Charles cleverly conceals himself high above, hidden among the branches of the majestic oak tree. Known as "The Royal Oak" this iconic event symbolizes both resilience and hope during one of England's darkest periods - the English Civil War. The Penderell Family depicted here is unaware of Charles' secret location, adding to the tension and excitement of this historical chase. Handcoloured with meticulous detail by John Leech and based on Gilbert Abbott A Beckett's illustration from "Comic History of England" this comical yet historically significant engraving brings humor to an otherwise serious subject matter. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness a thrilling chapter unfold. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and danger, courage can be found in unexpected places. This print not only celebrates King Charles II's ingenuity but also pays homage to all those who fought for their beliefs during this turbulent period in British history.
