EDITORS COMMENTS
Death to the Kingmaker, 1471 (1864) captures a pivotal moment in English history through the skilled hand of artist James William Edmund Doyle. The print depicts Richard Neville, the 16th Earl of Warwick, famously known as the Kingmaker, who played a significant role during the Wars of the Roses. In this vivid portrayal set amidst a forested landscape near Barnet, Hertfordshire, we witness Warwick's final battle on April 14th, 1471. Outnumbered and facing imminent threat from his enemies, Warwick valiantly fights with sword and shield alongside his loyal men. The intensity of warfare is palpable as spears clash and swords flash against an overcast sky. Doyle's attention to detail brings historical accuracy to life in this engraving from 'A Chronicle of England B. C. 55 - A. D. 1485.

Through this artwork, we are transported back to a tumultuous era when power struggles defined England's destiny. It serves as a testament to Warwick's indomitable spirit and unwavering commitment to his ideals.
