EDITORS COMMENTS
This copperplate engraving captures a poignant moment in history as Lady Elizabeth Grey, also known as Elisabeth Woodville, kneels before King Edward IV with her two young sons Thomas and Richard by her side. The desperation in her eyes is palpable as she pleads for the restoration of her lands, which were unjustly taken from her.
Elisabeth Woodville was a woman of strength and resilience, navigating the treacherous waters of court politics during the tumultuous Wars of the Roses. Despite facing numerous challenges and betrayals throughout her life, she never wavered in fighting for what was rightfully hers.
The image beautifully conveys the love and determination that Elisabeth had for her children, who stood by her side in solidarity. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices mothers make to protect their families and secure their future.
As we gaze upon this historical scene frozen in time, we are reminded of Elisabeth Woodville's unwavering courage and tenacity in the face of adversity. Her story is one of perseverance and hope, a testament to the enduring power of maternal love.
