EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image, King Egbert of Wessex (802-839 AD) proudly wears the regal insignia of his position as King of the West Saxons. Dating from the late 9th century, this oval portrait showcases the powerful and commanding presence of one of the most significant figures in English history. Born around 775 AD, Egbert ascended to the throne of Wessex in 802 AD following the death of his father, King Beorhtric. During his reign, Egbert successfully expanded the borders of Wessex, bringing much of England under his rule. He is best known for his victory over the Viking invaders at the Battle of Ellandun in 825 AD, which marked the end of the Viking threat to Wessex for several generations. The intricate detail of this royal portrait reveals Egbert's regal attire, including his elaborate crown adorned with precious gems and metals. His expression conveys a sense of wisdom, authority, and determination, reflecting the challenges he faced during his long and successful reign. King Egbert's legacy extended beyond his military achievements. He is also credited with establishing the Church of England and is considered the first true king of England. This image serves as a testament to his enduring impact on English history and the respect he commanded as a leader. The intricately designed border of the print adds an elegant touch, further emphasizing the importance and significance of this historical figure. This portrait of King Egbert of Wessex offers a glimpse into the rich history of England during the early Middle Ages and the reign of a truly remarkable monarch.
