EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a remarkable moment in history as Edgar the Peaceful, an influential Anglo-Saxon king, is rowed down the majestic River Dee by eight tributary princes. Legend has it that following his coronation, these kings, including Kenneth II of Scotland and Mael Coluim, King of Strathclyde, pledged their allegiance to Edgar by taking up the oars of his grand state barge. The image showcases a scene filled with regal splendor and unity as these powerful rulers navigate through the tranquil waters near Chester. The effort put forth by each prince symbolizes their commitment to supporting Edgar's reign and maintaining peace within Britain. This engraving from "Cassells Illustrated History of England" not only provides us with a glimpse into this historic event but also offers insight into the rich tapestry of British history.

It serves as a testament to Edgar's leadership skills and his ability to unite diverse regions under one crown.
