EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back in time to the historic Bosworth Field and King Richard's Well. The image, created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, offers a glimpse into the traditional topography of old England. The scene is filled with a sense of nostalgia as we explore one of our country's ancient towns. The print, part of a private collection, was originally featured in Alfred Rimmer's book "Our Old Country Towns" published by Chatto and Windus in 1881. Bosworth Field holds great significance as it was here that one of England's most pivotal battles took place. It is said that this very field witnessed the final moments of King Richard III during the Wars of the Roses. The engraving beautifully captures this historical site, allowing us to imagine the events that unfolded on its hallowed ground centuries ago. In addition to Bosworth Field, we are also introduced to King Richard's Well—a symbol of both mystery and reverence. This well has long been associated with legends surrounding King Richard III and his thirst for water during battle. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can't help but feel transported back in time. It serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and invites us to delve deeper into England's fascinating history.
