EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable portrait of Henry II, the esteemed King of England from 1154 to 1189. The image captures the essence of this influential ruler, who reigned during the tumultuous period known as the Middle Ages. Henry II was born on March 5th, 1133 and his reign lasted for an impressive thirty-five years until his passing on July 6th, 1189. This portrait offers a glimpse into his regal presence and commanding demeanor that characterized his rule. The artist has skillfully depicted Henry II in intricate detail, emphasizing his royal stature and authority. Dressed in opulent attire befitting a king, he exudes power and confidence. His piercing gaze suggests intelligence and determination while hinting at the challenges he faced during his reign. Set against the backdrop of Canterbury Cathedral, this drawing transports us back to twelfth-century England – a time when kings held immense influence over their subjects' lives. It serves as a testament to both Henry II's significance in history and the architectural grandeur of one of England's most iconic landmarks. As we admire this historical artifact captured by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded not only of Henry II's role as a monarch but also of his complex relationship with Thomas Becket – an important figure whose story is intertwined with that of this powerful king. This exceptional piece invites us to delve deeper into English history while appreciating the artistry behind its creation. It stands as an enduring tribute to both royalty and medieval times - reminding us how these elements have shaped our understanding of Europe's rich cultural heritage.
