EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of James II's reception in Dublin in 1698. After being deposed during the Glorious Revolution of 1688, James sought refuge in France, where his cousin Louis XIV welcomed him with open arms. At that time, Louis was engaged in a war against William of Orange, who had taken over the throne of England and Scotland as James' replacement. Encouraged by Louis, James decided to travel to Ireland, which still recognized him as its rightful king. The image showcases the grandeur and significance of this occasion as crowds gather to welcome their exiled monarch back home. Clad in regal attire and accompanied by loyal supporters, James II stands tall amidst an adoring crowd. James II's reign spanned across three kingdoms - England, Ireland, and Scotland - where he held titles as King James II and VII respectively. This photograph is a testament to his enduring influence even after being dethroned. Preserved from Cassells Illustrated History of England published around 1890 by Ken Welsh (not affiliated with any commercial use), this print offers us a glimpse into a pivotal moment in history when political alliances were forged amidst wars for power and loyalty remained steadfast towards an ousted ruler.
