EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1505 portrait by Michiel Sittow showcases the esteemed Henry VII, the first Tudor king of England. With a victorious smile on his face, he holds an air of confidence and authority as he gazes directly at the camera. The pendant around his neck symbolizes his royal lineage, while the arch in the background represents stability and strength. Henry VII's reign marked a significant turning point in British history. His decisive victory over Richard III at Bosworth Field in 1485 brought an end to the Wars of the Roses, uniting warring factions and establishing peace within England. This momentous event is forever etched into history through this remarkable painting. The artist's illustration technique beautifully captures every detail of Henry VII's regal appearance - from his intricately designed headdress to his piercing eyes that exude wisdom and determination. Against a serene sky backdrop, this vertical composition emphasizes Henry VII's importance as a central figure in English culture. As we admire this print today, we are reminded of Henry VII's lasting legacy as a transformative ruler who laid the foundation for future Tudor monarchs. This image serves as both a historical artifact and a testament to one man's indelible impact on British royalty and society.
