EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Seal of King Richard I, a remarkable piece made from wax and parchment. The image captures the reverse side of the second seal used by Richard the Lionheart in 1194. The seal depicts a mounted figure of the king, adorned in a haubert of chain mail and a crested helmet. Inscribed on it are the words "Richard, duke of the Normans and Count of the Angevins" (RICARDUS DUX NORMANNORUM ET AQUITANORUM ET COMES ANDEGAUORUM), marking its historical significance. Notably, this seal is also recognized as being the first to feature a royal crest with a crowned lion. Attached to an important document granting land rights to Canterbury Cathedral's monks, this seal holds immense official value. The photograph beautifully captures every intricate detail - from Richard's regal attire to his cheek resting against his horse's head. It offers us an intriguing glimpse into medieval times when such seals were crucial for authentication purposes. As we admire this extraordinary work, we can't help but appreciate its artistic motifs: broadsword, armor, sword, helmet crest – all symbolizing power and authority. This image serves as both an informative historical artifact and a stunning portrayal of royalty during that era.
