EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Samuel Wale depicts a dramatic moment in English history. In the image, Bishop Gardiner can be seen approaching with a guard to seize Catherine Parr, who was innocently strolling through the garden with King Henry VIII. The tension is palpable as the bishop and his men close in on the unsuspecting queen. The scene captures a pivotal event during the reign of Henry VIII, when religious tensions were running high in England. Catherine Parr, known for her Protestant sympathies, found herself at odds with Bishop Gardiner and other Catholic leaders who sought to maintain traditional beliefs. Wale's intricate detailing brings this historical moment to life, showcasing not only the attire and expressions of each figure but also capturing the lushness of the garden setting. It is evident that this engraving was created with great skill and attention to detail. This artwork serves as an illustration for A New and Complete History of England by Temple Sydney (J Cooke, 1774), providing viewers with a visual representation of an important event from English history. Through this print, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the power struggles between religious factions during Henry VIII's reign.
