EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Interview between the Empress Matilda and Queen Maud AD 1141" transports us back to a significant moment in English history. The print, created by Mary L. Gow in the early 20th century, showcases an intense encounter between two powerful women. Empress Matilda and Queen Maud stand before each other, their regal costumes exuding authority and elegance. The atmosphere is palpable with tension as they engage in what appears to be a heated conversation. Their expressions reveal a mixture of determination and defiance. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this historic meeting during the tumultuous period known as "The Anarchy". This was a time when these formidable figures vied for control over England's throne following the death of King Henry I. Intriguingly, it seems that this interview did not go smoothly. The word "rebuff" comes to mind when observing their body language - perhaps indicating a harsh exchange of words or differing agendas. As we delve into English history through this remarkable engraving from Cassells History of England, we are reminded of the complexities that lie within political power struggles and how they shape nations' destinies. It serves as both an artistic marvel and an educational tool, allowing us to glimpse into moments that have shaped our world today.
