EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the moment when King Henry IV of England, dressed in armor and surrounded by his loyal soldiers, marches out of London to quell the Oldcastle Rebellion in January 1414. The rebellion was led by the Lollards, a radical religious group who followed the teachings of the reformer John Wyclif, who had been critical of the Church's authority and advocated for the translation of the Bible into the vernacular language. The Lollards had been subjected to increasing persecution under Henry IV's reign, with many being arrested, imprisoned, and even burned at the stake. The rebellion was sparked by the execution of Sir John Oldcastle, a prominent Lollard leader, and quickly gained support from disaffected commoners and even some members of the nobility. The rebellion posed a significant threat to the established order, and Henry IV responded with force. In this print from Mary Evans Picture Library, we see the king leading his troops out of the city, determined to put down the rebellion and restore order. The image captures the tense atmosphere of the moment, with the king's expression conveying a sense of resolve and determination. The soldiers behind him are alert and ready for battle, their weapons at the ready. The Oldcastle Rebellion was ultimately unsuccessful, and the Lollards were once again suppressed. However, the rebellion highlighted the growing discontent with the Church and the monarchy, and would contribute to the wider social and political upheavals of the late medieval period in England.
