EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from around 1880 depicts the historic moment when Richard I, also known as Coeur de Lion, landed at Sandwich, Kent on March 14, 1194. The image captures the essence of a significant event in English history as Richard, the son of Henry II and Eleanor of Aquitaine and the second Angevin king of England (1189-1199), returned home from the Third Crusade.
After being shipwrecked during his journey back to England, Richard embarked on a perilous trek across Europe in disguise. However, he was eventually recognized and taken captive by Holy Roman Emperor Henry VI. To secure his release, an enormous ransom was paid by England to the Germans.
The engraving beautifully portrays this dramatic chapter in Richard's life with intricate details that bring the scene to life. From the rugged timbers of ships to the regal presence of King Richard himself, every element is meticulously crafted to convey a sense of grandeur and historical significance.
As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in medieval Europe when politics and power intersected with war and religion. It serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring legacy left behind by one of England's most legendary monarchs.
