EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases King William III of England, also known as William of Orange. Painted by Mary Ann Rundall in the 19th century, this handcoloured steel engraving beautifully captures the regal essence of the monarch. In his ermine mantle and adorned with a doublet and breeches, King William III holds a sceptre symbolizing his authority. The emblems featured in the portrait represent significant events during his reign, including the Siege of Londonderry, Battle of the Boyne, Battle of La Hogue, and even the death of King James. Mary Ann Rundall was not only an artist but also a teacher who published her book on mnemonic emblems in 1815. Her attention to detail is evident in this symbolic illustration from "A Symbolical History of England" which covers early times up until the reign of William IV. This print serves as both an educational tool and a piece of art that brings history to life. It offers viewers a glimpse into English history through its intricate costume details and hieroglyphic-like symbols. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical masterpiece for us to appreciate today. As we gaze upon it, we are transported back to an era filled with power struggles and triumphs—a testament to human resilience throughout time.
