Administration Collection Court Dues Feudal Liveries Revenue Wards
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Court of Wards and Liveries, a crucial aspect of English administration during the late 16th century. Taken from J. R. Green's renowned book "Short History of the English People" published in London back in 1893, this image offers a glimpse into an era long gone. The Court of Wards and Liveries played a pivotal role in managing the revenue collection system for feudal dues and wardship within England between 1588 to 1598. This institution was responsible for overseeing matters related to minors who inherited land or property, ensuring their welfare and safeguarding their interests until they reached adulthood. Ken Welsh's expertly captured photograph allows us to appreciate the intricate details present within this historical setting. The grandeur of the court is evident through its ornate architecture, while individuals engaged in legal proceedings can be seen immersed in discussions that shaped English society at that time. As we delve into this image, it serves as a reminder of how far our administrative systems have evolved over centuries. It prompts us to reflect on how these institutions influenced social structures and economic growth throughout history. Welsh's skillful photography transports us back to an era where power dynamics were defined by feudal obligations and responsibilities towards wards under one's care. Through this photo print, we gain insight into an integral part of English history that continues to shape our understanding today.
