EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Royal Oak Cup, a significant artifact housed at the Barber-Surgeons Hall. Dating back to 1676, this ornate trophy was presented by King Charles II himself in commemoration of his miraculous escape from Cromwell's forces at Boscobel. The cup holds immense historical value and is considered one of the most treasured possessions of the Worshipful Company of Barbers. The image captures every intricate detail of this remarkable piece, with its decorative design and undeniable grandeur. Against a pristine white background, the cup stands as a testament to craftsmanship and artistry that prevailed during the 17th century. Displayed prominently within this photograph is not only an object but also a symbol representing resilience and triumph over adversity. It serves as a reminder of Charles II's daring escape and his eventual return to power as King of Great Britain and Ireland. As we gaze upon this studio shot, we are transported back in time to witness history frozen in an instant. The Royal Oak Cup embodies both beauty and significance, encapsulating centuries worth of stories within its gleaming surface.
