EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the somber and tragic moment of Thomas Howard, Duke of Norfolk's beheading on June 2nd, 1572. This engraving by an unknown English artist from the 18th century portrays the historical event with great detail and emotion. Thomas Howard was a prominent English nobleman who met his untimely fate at the hands of executioners. The image showcases him standing tall, wearing a regal crown that now seems insignificant in light of his impending doom. His stoic expression reflects both bravery and resignation as he faces his ultimate sacrifice for his beliefs. The engraving is part of the Universal Magazine, published in accordance with Act of Parliament by J Hinton at the Kings Arms in St Pauls Church Yard in 1750. It serves as a historical record, reminding us of this significant event during Elizabethan England. This portrait not only highlights Thomas Howard's nobility but also provides insights into Tudor history and European culture during the 16th century. It offers viewers a glimpse into an era marked by political intrigue, power struggles, and religious conflicts. As we contemplate this artwork today, it reminds us to reflect on our own values and principles while appreciating how far society has progressed since those tumultuous times.
