EDITORS COMMENTS
In this exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving, we witness the grand and historic wedding of 14-year-old Prince Edward of England and 11-year-old Eleonor of Castile, which took place at the Monastery of Las Huelgas in Burgos, Spain, in the year 1254. The young couple, dressed in the finest attire of the 13th century, stand before each other, their hands joined in matrimony, as they exchange vows in the presence of their families, nobles, and clergy. Prince Edward, later to be known as King Edward I, is depicted in regal attire, wearing a long, flowing tunic and mantle, adorned with intricate embroidery and fur trimmings. His crown sits proudly atop his head, symbolizing his royal status. Eleonor, the Princess of Castile, is shown in a beautiful, elegant gown, adorned with delicate floral patterns and a velvet mantle, draped over her shoulders. Her long, flowing hair is styled in intricate braids, and a diadem adorns her head. The Monastery of Las Huelgas, a magnificent architectural masterpiece, serves as the backdrop for this grand occasion. The intricate details of the monastery's architecture, from its arched windows and intricate carvings, are beautifully captured in the engraving. The scene is further brought to life by the addition of handcolouring, which adds depth and vibrancy to the image. This wedding was a significant event in European history, as it marked the beginning of a political alliance between England and Castile, which would last for centuries. The marriage also marked the beginning of Edward's reign, which would see him become one of England's most influential and successful monarchs. This stunning engraving provides a glimpse into the grandeur and splendour of the 13th century, and serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural traditions that have shaped Europe.
