EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases King Henry I of England in all his regal glory. Adorned with a crown, sword, orb, and mantle, the king exudes power and authority. The emblems depicted in the painting hold significant historical meaning - they represent a peace treaty with France, his imprisonment in Cardiff Castle, the French invasion of Normandy, and the tragic death of Prince William. Handcoloured steel engraving brings this symbolic artwork to life. Created by Mary Ann Rundall after an illustration from her book "A Symbolical History of England" this piece offers a glimpse into English history from early times to the reign of William IV. Rundall herself was not only an artist but also a teacher for young ladies in Bath. The intricate details and vibrant colors make this print both educational and visually stunning. It serves as a reminder of how art can be used as mnemonic devices or hieroglyphics to aid in learning and understanding history. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable piece from their collection on Fine Art Finder. While we cannot mention commercial use here, it is clear that this print holds immense value for those interested in costume history or symbolic illustrations of England's past.
