EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic portrait of Queen Mary I of England, created by Henry Thomas Ryall in the early to mid-19th century. The image depicts Queen Mary Tudor, who reigned from 1553 until her death in 1558, as she attempted to restore Roman Catholicism in England. Known as "Bloody Mary" due to her harsh persecution of Protestants, she remains a significant figure in English history. The original painting by Hans Holbein is held within the esteemed collection of The Most Noble The Marquis of Exeter. This exquisite engraving beautifully captures the regal essence of Queen Mary with intricate details such as her elegant headdress adorned with pearls and fur-trimmed clothing. As one gazes upon this monochrome masterpiece, it transports us back to the tumultuous era when religion played a pivotal role in shaping countries and their people's lives. Queen Mary's determination to uphold Roman Catholicism amidst a predominantly Protestant nation reflects both her unwavering faith and strong-willed character. This remarkable print not only serves as a visual testament to an influential monarch but also offers insight into the religious struggles that defined sixteenth-century England. It stands as a reminder of how historical figures continue to shape our understanding of politics, religion, and society today.
