EDITORS COMMENTS
Windsor Castle: Henry VIII Startled by Herne the Hunter (1842), a captivating historical print by Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back to the Tudor era with an intriguing scene of King Henry VIII in a moment of surprise. The image, published in 1842, depicts Henry VIII on horseback, dressed in his regal attire, with a quizzical expression as he encounters the ghostly figure of Herne the Hunter. Herne, a legendary figure from English folklore, was said to be the ghost of the former keeper of Windsor Forest, who was punished for hunting on the King's land without permission. The hunter is shown in traditional attire, with antlers on his head and a bow and arrow in hand. His ghostly presence is emphasized by the ethereal mist that surrounds him, adding an otherworldly quality to the scene. This striking print, created in the mid-19th century, is a testament to the enduring fascination with the history and legends of Windsor Castle and the Tudor monarchy. The intricate details of the print, from the textures of Henry's clothing to the intricacies of Herne's antlers, bring the scene to life and transport us back in time. The print is also a reminder of the rich literary heritage of the period, as it was inspired by the popular ballad "Herne the Hunter" by the Victorian poet and novelist, R. S. Ainsworth. The poem, which was first published in 1841, added to the mythology surrounding Herne and helped to popularize the legend in Victorian England. Overall, this print is a must-have for history buffs, folklore enthusiasts, and anyone with an interest in the Tudor era and the legends of Windsor Castle.
