"1471: A Glimpse into the Turmoil of War and Intrigue" Step back in time to the Battle of Tewkesbury, a pivotal moment in history during the War of the Roses. As swords clashed and arrows flew, this fierce battle forever altered the course of England's destiny. Intriguingly captured in a vibrant color lithograph is Queen Margaret's flight after her defeat at Tewkesbury. The image portrays her desperate escape, evoking both sympathy and admiration for her resilience amidst adversity. The War of the Roses was a tumultuous period marked by power struggles and shifting alliances. Warwick, known as "Kingmaker, " played a significant role in these conflicts, his actions leaving an indelible mark on history. Delve further into this era through the Pastrana Tapestries from 1471. These exquisite works depict scenes such as "Taking of Tanger" and "Disembarkation in Asilah, " offering glimpses into military conquests that shaped nations. While war raged on land, great minds like Philipp Schwarzerd Melanchthon emerged elsewhere. This influential scholar left an intellectual legacy that would transcend centuries. Henry VI also makes an appearance within our historical tapestry; his engraving from c. 1900 reminds us of his troubled reign amid political turmoil. Artistic endeavors were not forgotten during this chaotic time either – Albrecht Durer's masterpiece "The Apocalypse of St. John" captivates with its intricate details and profound symbolism. Lastly, we witness Richard Neville's tragic demise - Death befalls Warwick the Kingmaker himself - immortalized forever through engravings that capture both his grandeur and ultimate downfall.
