EDITORS COMMENTS
The lithographic print titled "Arrival of William of Orange in England, November 1688" captures a pivotal moment in history. Depicting the scene from The Worlds History, this artwork showcases the dramatic arrival of William of Orange on English shores during the Glorious Revolution. In this image, we see a fleet of sailing ships approaching the coast of Brixham, Devon. The sea is filled with excitement and anticipation as soldiers disembark from their vessels onto British soil. William III, also known as William of Orange, stands tall at the forefront, symbolizing his determination to claim the throne. This historic event marked a significant turning point for both England and Europe. As King James II was overthrown by his Protestant son-in-law and daughter Mary II, it paved the way for constitutional monarchy and religious tolerance in Britain. The artist Hooghe beautifully captures every detail: from the meticulously rendered ships to the soldiers marching ashore with purpose. This engraving not only commemorates an important historical event but also serves as a testament to European unity during that time. With its rich colors and intricate details, this litho print is truly a masterpiece that transports us back to that fateful day in November 1688 when William's arrival forever changed British history.
