EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Henry at Waterford" takes us back in time to the year 1172, capturing a significant moment in history. The image showcases an impressive fleet of ships sailing towards the port of Waterford, Ireland. Flags flutter proudly in the wind as Lord Steward Fitzaldelm rolls out a vibrant red carpet on the dock, awaiting the arrival of King Henry II. The scene is filled with intrigue and tension as we learn that this visit marks Henry's encounter with his prisoner, Fitz Stephen. The English monarch's presence in Ireland during this period was pivotal for both nations' histories. The composition beautifully captures not only historical events but also highlights elements of German culture prevalent during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, we are reminded of Germany's influence across Europe and its deep-rooted connections to Northern Germany. Bridgeman Images has skillfully preserved this piece from James E Doyle's chronicle "A Chronicle of England BC 55 to AD 1485" published in London in 1864. This rare find allows us to delve into history through art and appreciate how it shapes our understanding of past civilizations.
