Flight of Queen Margaret and Prince Edward
Flight of Queen Margaret and Prince Edward. Queen Margaret of Anjou, wife of King Henry VI, fleeing into a forest after the Battle of Hexham (15 May 1464, Wars of the Roses) with her son, Prince Edward, meets a robber and asks for protection. This legend has little basis in reality, as Margaret was not in England at the time of the battle.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the legendary tale of Queen Margaret of Anjou, wife of King Henry VI, and her young son, Prince Edward, seeking refuge in a forest after the Battle of Hexham during the Wars of the Roses in 1464. According to the story, the queen and prince came across a robber in the woods, who, moved by their plight, offered them protection. This scene, filled with drama and intrigue, is a popular one in the annals of medieval history. Queen Margaret of Anjou, a formidable and influential queen, was known for her strong will and determination. She was a key player in the Wars of the Roses, a series of civil wars that raged in England during the late 15th century between the House of Lancaster, represented by King Henry VI and the House of York, led by the Duke of York. However, it is important to note that there is little historical evidence to support the story of Margaret and Prince Edward's encounter with a robber in the woods after the Battle of Hexham. In fact, Queen Margaret was not even in England at the time of the battle. The image of the queen and her son fleeing for their lives in the forest, however, remains a powerful and enduring symbol of the turbulent times of the Wars of the Roses. This print, created by the renowned illustrator Raphael Tuck, captures the essence of the legend with its intricate details and rich colors. The forest setting is depicted with a sense of depth and mystery, while the figures of Queen Margaret and Prince Edward are rendered with a sense of vulnerability and determination. The inclusion of the robber, a figure of both danger and protection, adds an element of suspense and intrigue to the scene. Overall, this print is a captivating representation of a legendary moment in medieval history.
