EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Fitz-Stephen Burns his Boats, 1169 AD" takes us back to the 12th century in Ireland. Created by Richard Caton Woodville II, this artwork showcases a pivotal moment in history when Norman knight Robert Fitz-Stephen was sent by Strongbow to pacify the country. In this vividly colored image, we witness Fitz-Stephen standing amidst a group of men dressed in medieval attire. The flames from the burning boats illuminate their faces and reflect off their armor, creating an intense atmosphere. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he captures every intricate element of their clothing and weaponry. The significance of this scene lies in its symbolism - Fitz-Stephen's decision to burn his boats demonstrates his commitment and determination to conquer Ireland. By destroying their means of retreat, he effectively eliminates any possibility of turning back or surrendering.

Through his skillful use of color and composition, he brings life to a crucial moment in Irish history.
