EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print captures a pivotal moment in English history, depicting Thomas of Woodstock, Duke of Gloucester, and his trusted advisor Sir John Lackingay plotting against King Richard II. The year is 1396, and the atmosphere is charged with tension as the two men conspire to bring about the downfall of their monarch.
Thomas of Woodstock, known for his ambitious nature and thirst for power, sought to assert his influence over the kingdom by undermining Richard II's rule. With Sir John Lackingay by his side, he devised a cunning plan to strip the king of his authority and secure their own positions at court.
The intricate details in this hand-colored lithograph reveal the intensity of their scheming as they strategize behind closed doors. The artist has captured every furrowed brow and whispered word, conveying the sense of secrecy and betrayal that permeates this clandestine meeting.
As viewers gaze upon this historical scene brought to life through artistry, they are transported back to a time rife with political intrigue and treachery. It serves as a reminder of the complex dynamics that shaped medieval England and highlights the enduring fascination with tales of conspiracy and power struggles within royal courts.
