EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical artifact that holds immense significance. The image captures a letter written by King Edward VI to his uncle, Edward Seymour, Duke of Somerset, on the 18th of September in 1547. At the tender age of not quite ten years old, King Edward VI penned this letter from Otlandes (Oatlands) with faintly ruled pencil lines. The content of the letter reveals its importance - it was written upon receiving news of his victory over the Scots at Pinkie on the 10th of September. This correspondence offers a glimpse into the mind and emotions of a young monarch who had just achieved triumph in battle. The photograph beautifully displays both the color and handwriting style characteristic of this era. It is an exquisite facsimile from the fourth series collection titled "Facsimiles of royal, historical, literary and other autographs in the Department of Manuscripts, British Museum". The print collector has expertly captured every detail to transport us back to England's sixteenth century. Intriguingly capturing both war and childhood innocence within one frame, this print serves as a testament to royalty during Tudor times. It immortalizes not only King Edward VI but also his influential uncle, Edward Seymour - first Duke of Somerset and Protector. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded once again that history lives through these tangible remnants left behind by great figures such as King Edward VI and their trusted confidants like Duke Seymour.
