EDITORS COMMENTS
This design for a medallion of King Alfred, created by Sir Robert Smirke, transports us back to the 10th century and the reign of Alfred the Great, King of Wessex. The monarch is depicted in profile, wearing a crown adorned with leaves and a sword, symbolizing his royal authority and power. The oval-shaped medallion, inspired by Greek Revival style, showcases the king's noble and regal appearance. The intricate drawing, executed in pen and gray ink with brush and gray wash on ivory laid paper tipped onto cream laid paper, reveals the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill of Sir Robert Smirke. The surrounding foliage, featuring leaves and plants, adds a touch of nature to the design, emphasizing the connection between the monarch and the land he ruled. King Alfred, also known as Alfred the Great, was a significant figure in British history, renowned for his military victories against the Danes and his contributions to literature, education, and law. This medallion design, a conceptual representation of his sovereign status, is a testament to the enduring legacy of this remarkable monarch. The artifact, which is now a valuable print, is part of the rich collection at the Art Institute of Chicago, showcasing the institute's extensive holdings of historical and cultural artifacts. The image, with its striking contrast and timeless appeal, continues to captivate viewers and inspire appreciation for the artistic and historical significance of this iconic figure from England's past.
