EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite effigy of Edward, a significant historical figure from the 15th century. Created by artist CM Dixon in the 20th century, this close-up shot captures every intricate detail of Sheriff Hutton Church's effigy in Yorkshire. Believed to represent Edward of Middleham, Prince of Wales, Earl of Chester, Duke of Cornwall, and 1st Earl of Salisbury (1473-1484), this young boy was the only legitimate child born to King Richard III and Queen Consort Anne Neville. Tragically, he passed away at the tender age of ten. The human likeness depicted in this indoor sculpture is a testament to both artistic skill and religious devotion. As we delve into history through this image, we are reminded not only of Edward's royal lineage but also his profound impact on England during his short life. Located within North Yorkshire's stunning landscape, Sheriff Hutton Church stands as an enduring symbol of Christianity and aristocracy. The presence of this effigy serves as a reminder that even within grandeur lies vulnerability and mortality. Through CM Dixon's lens, we are transported back in time to witness the legacy left behind by Edward - a prince who never had the chance to fulfill his potential or ascend to greatness like his father before him. This photograph encapsulates both beauty and tragedy while preserving an important piece of British history for generations to come.
