EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from North Wind Picture Archives takes us back in time to medieval England, where we witness King Henry II fulfilling his role as a traveling judge. The hand-colored halftone reproduction of a 19th-century illustration brings this historical moment to life with vibrant hues and intricate details. In the image, we see the majestic European court setting within a grand palace. King Henry II sits upon his regal throne, adorned with the royal crown that symbolizes his authority and power. As he presides over the trial before him, justice is being served under his watchful eye. The vintage aesthetic of this artwork transports us to the 12th century, during which King Henry II reigned as one of Britain's most influential monarchs. Known for his strong leadership and legal reforms, he was often referred to as "Henry Curtmantle" or "Plantegenet". Through this illustration, we glimpse into an era characterized by castles and chivalry; an age when kings held immense sway over their subjects' lives. It serves as a reminder of British history's rich tapestry and offers insight into how justice was administered during those times. This remarkable piece captures not only the essence of King Henry II but also highlights the significance of medieval England in shaping our understanding of law and governance today.
