EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases the life and reign of Henry VII, a significant figure in British history. Born in 1457, he ascended to the throne in 1485 after winning the Battle of Bosworth Field, effectively ending the Wars of the Roses. The engraving depicts his coronation ceremony, a momentous event that marked the beginning of his rule as King of England. Henry VII's reign was characterized by notable achievements and events that shaped both Britain and Europe. He established stability within his kingdom through diplomatic alliances and economic reforms, laying the foundation for future prosperity. His marriage to Elizabeth of York united two warring factions - Lancaster and York - symbolizing a new era for England. The image also serves as a reminder of Henry VII's legacy as a ruler who prioritized family unity. By securing advantageous marriages for his children across European royal houses, he ensured lasting peace with neighboring countries. This engraving not only captures an important historical figure but also reflects on broader themes such as royalty, power dynamics, and cultural exchange between Germany (where this print originated) and Great Britain. It is an invaluable piece that offers insight into Henry VII's impact on British history while showcasing artistic excellence from the 19th century.
