EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Wenceslaus Hollar takes us back to the year 1651, capturing the historical significance of Boscobel House and Park. Nestled within a picturesque countryside estate, this manor house holds secrets from one of England's most tumultuous periods - the English Civil War. The image showcases the breathtaking view of Boscobel House surrounded by lush gardens and woodlands. However, it is not just its beauty that makes this place remarkable; it was here that King Charles II found refuge after narrowly escaping defeat at the Battle of Worcester. Legend has it that he hid from Parliamentary soldiers in an oak tree within these very grounds. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost feel the tension and fear that must have gripped Charles II as he sought sanctuary amidst nature's embrace. The panoramic scene captures both his desperation for escape and his determination to reclaim his throne. Boscobel House stands as a testament to resilience and survival during times of great adversity. It serves as a reminder of how even in our darkest moments, hope can be found in unexpected places. This engraving allows us to step into history, immersing ourselves in a moment where a king clung onto life while plotting his triumphant return. With its intricate details and rich symbolism, Hollar's work transports us back to an era defined by conflict but also marked by courage and perseverance.
