EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases King Edward III of England, also known as Edward of Windsor. The artist, Mary Ann Rundall, skillfully captures the regal essence of the king through her meticulous attention to detail. Clad in a majestic crown, holding a sceptre and draped in an elegant mantle, King Edward III exudes power and authority. The emblems depicted within the portrait provide fascinating insights into key moments from his reign. They symbolize significant events such as Scotland's invasion of England, the historic Battle of Crecy where English forces triumphed over their French counterparts, his capture by Queen Philippa during battle and finally the Battle of Poitiers. Handcoloured with precision and care, this steel engraving brings to life Rundall's illustration from "A Symbolical History of England". Published in 1839 by J. H. Truchy in Paris, this book aimed to educate readers about English history through mnemonic emblems. Mary Ann Rundall herself was not only an artist but also a teacher for young ladies in Bath. Her expertise shines through her work as she combines historical accuracy with artistic flair. This remarkable print is more than just a visual representation; it serves as a window into both the costume and symbolic illustrations that shaped England's rich history. A testament to education and artistry alike, it offers viewers an opportunity to delve deeper into King Edward III's reign while appreciating its aesthetic beauty.
