EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Poison sucked from the wound of Prince Edward by his consort Eleanor" transports us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Angelica Kauffmann and now part of a private collection, this print depicts an extraordinary event that took place during the Crusades. Intriguingly, we witness Prince Edward, who had been wounded while fighting in Acre, being tended to by his devoted consort Eleanor. The prince's injury was further complicated when poison seeped into his wound. However, with unwavering determination and love for her husband, Eleanor fearlessly takes on the role of healer. The image captures the intensity and urgency of the situation as Eleanor delicately sucks out the poisonous substance from Prince Edward's wound. This act not only showcases her bravery but also highlights her knowledge of medicinal practices during that era. The artist skillfully portrays both pain and hope on their faces; one can almost feel their relief as they triumph over this perilous ordeal together. It is a testament to their resilience and unbreakable bond amidst adversity. As we admire this digitally cleaned image from an unidentified 19th-century history book about England, we are reminded of the power of love and sacrifice even in times of war. This historical artwork serves as a reminder that sometimes it is our loved ones who become our greatest healers when faced with life-threatening challenges.
