EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a pivotal moment in history, as Richard II, the ill-fated King of England, is betrayed and taken prisoner by the Duke of Northumberland at Penmaur Rhos. The facsimile copy from Le Prinse et mort du Roy Richart by Jean Creton has been beautifully reprinted in the 19th century using color lithography techniques. The scene unfolds with an air of tension and treachery. Clad in magnificent 14th-century armor, the Duke of Northumberland leads his army to capture the unsuspecting king. Horses gallop across the Welsh landscape as soldiers brandish pikes and swords, ready for battle. Richard II stands noble yet vulnerable amidst this chaotic tableau. His regal presence contrasts sharply with his impending fate as a prisoner. The colors used in this lithograph bring life to every detail - from the vibrant hues of their attire to the lush green surroundings that bear witness to this historic event. As we gaze upon this illustration, we are transported back in time - late 14th century England comes alive before our eyes. This image serves as a powerful reminder of how betrayal can shape destinies and alter nations' course forever. Preserved within Heritage Images' Historica Graphica Collection, this print captures not only a significant historical moment but also showcases Virgil Master's exceptional artistic talent dating back to c1309-1420. It is a testament to both human intrigue and artistic excellence that continues to captivate viewers
