EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Dunbar Medal, a historical artifact that depicts The House of Parliament in 1650. Crafted by the talented artist Thomas Simon, this silver medal measures 3.4x2.8cm and is currently housed at the prestigious Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, UK. The reverse side of the Dunbar Medal portrays a significant event in history - the defeat of Scots at Dunbar on September 3rd, 1650. This momentous battle during the interregnum period holds great importance as it symbolizes political power struggles and government changes within Britain. The intricate details captured on this small piece of art truly bring history to life. As we gaze upon it, we are transported back to a time when long parliament sessions were held and politicians debated fervently within these very walls. The image evokes a sense of awe as we contemplate how such an unassuming object can hold so much historical significance. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly ordinary items can carry extraordinary stories from our past. Through this photograph, Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only the artistic skill behind Thomas Simon's creation but also its cultural value as an important relic from British history.
