The Millenary of King Alfred, Relics and Memorials
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph that takes us back to the early 20th century. Captured by an English photographer, this image showcases a collection of historical artifacts associated with the legendary King Alfred. The photograph is part of a private collection and was originally featured in The Illustrated London News in September 1901. In this intriguing composition, we see various relics and memorials related to King Alfred's reign. Among them are an Anglo-Saxon ring, a silver spoon, trial pieces of lead, a bronze seal, and even a massive gold finger ring. These treasures were discovered buried alongside Danish chieftains' remains at different locations such as Aller Church in Wiltshire and Driffield Church in Yorkshire. The photo also highlights significant places linked to King Alfred's life journey including Wantage, his birthplace; St Paul's Churchyard in London where he was laid to rest; Sevington where he burned cakes; Cuxton where he baptized his sister Ethelswith; Gravesend where he negotiated with Viking invaders; Peterborough with its impressive architecture; and many more. This print offers us a glimpse into the rich history surrounding one of England's most revered monarchs. It reminds us of the enduring legacy left behind by King Alfred through these precious relics that have survived for centuries.
