EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Henry VII, the renowned King of England and Principality of Wales during the 15th century. Painted by the talented artist George Vertue in 1859, this portrait captures the essence of a powerful monarch who played a significant role in restoring political stability to England. Henry VII's reign was marked by both commendable achievements and controversial actions. While he is credited with bringing stability to his kingdom, his later years were tainted by financial greed that pushed legal boundaries. This intriguing dichotomy is beautifully depicted in this monochrome image. The print originates from "The History of England Div IX" written by David Hume and Tobias Smollett, two prominent literary figures of their time. Published by Virtue & Co. in London in 1859, this engraving serves as a historical testament to Henry VII's legacy. In this portrait, Henry VII exudes regal authority while holding a sceptre symbolizing his sovereignty over England. He dons an elegant fur cloak adorned with ermine, further emphasizing his royal status. The attention to detail captured by Vertue brings out every nuance of Henry VII's expression and demeanor. As you gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, you are transported back to the 19th century when history came alive through literature and visual representations like these prints from The Print Collector collection.
