EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Monument of King John of England" located in the magnificent Cathedral Church of Worcester. Created by artist Goldar in 1786, this artwork beautifully captures the essence and historical significance of King John (c1166-1216). King John ascended to the throne on April 6,1199, following his brother Richard I's reign. He is most renowned for his power struggle with the barons, which ultimately led to his compelled signing of the influential Magna Carta in 1215. This legislation marked a pivotal moment in English history and established important principles that still resonate today. The monument itself is an impressive architectural marvel within Worcester Cathedral, dating back to the 12th and 13th centuries. It features a striking tomb effigy depicting King John as a powerful ruler from medieval times. The engraving perfectly captures every intricate detail and color present within this significant piece. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness a crucial chapter in England's past unfold before our eyes. The print evokes feelings of reverence and admiration for both King John's legacy as well as the enduring influence of religion and monarchy during that era. Goldar's masterful creation serves as a poignant reminder of our rich heritage while honoring one of England's notable monarchs.
