EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking image captures the moment of Cardinal Thomas Wolsey's dismissal from King Henry VIII's court in October 1529. Wolsey, once the most powerful man in England, was brought before the King's bench on charges of near treasonable offenses. Despite the gravity of the accusations, Wolsey was allowed to remain at liberty after pleading guilty, albeit stripped of his power and forfeiting his vast property holdings. The scene depicted in this print is filled with tension and drama. Wolsey, dressed in his rich robes and wearing a hat adorned with his cardinal's hat and tassel, stands before the King and his council, his expression a mixture of defiance and resignation. The other figures in the print, including the King and his advisors, are depicted in somber tones, reflecting the gravity of the situation. This historical event marked a turning point in English history. Wolsey, who had been instrumental in securing Henry's annulment from Catherine of Aragon, had fallen out of favor with the King due to his failure to secure a new marriage for Henry. The dismissal of Wolsey paved the way for the rise of Thomas Cromwell and the English Reformation. This print, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal moment in British history. The intricate details and rich colors bring the scene to life, transporting us back to the court of King Henry VIII and the tumultuous events of 1529.
