EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in history - the coronation of Henry VI on St. Leonard's Day, November 6th, 1429. The image showcases the grandeur and symbolism associated with royal ceremonies during the medieval period. In this scene, we witness an awe-inspiring spectacle as young Henry VI is presented with his spurs and sword by bishops and dignitaries. The boy king stands tall under a magnificent canopy, adorned in regal robes that befit his status as monarch of England. Surrounding him are bishops donning mitres and carrying crosiers, symbolizing their spiritual authority. The attention to detail in this lithograph is remarkable; every element has been meticulously captured by Samuel Begg's skilled hand. From the intricate engravings on the sword hilt to the delicate folds of Henry VI's robe, each aspect adds depth and richness to this historical depiction. This print not only serves as a visual record of an important event but also offers us insight into the pomp and circumstance surrounding royalty during that era. It transports us back to a time when power was consolidated through elaborate rituals and symbols. As we gaze upon this image from The Illustrated London News dated 1902, we can't help but marvel at its timeless beauty and appreciate how it brings history alive before our eyes.
