EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Edward V, King of England and France in 1787. The creator remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to this historic portrait. Edward V, who reigned briefly from 1470 to 1483, was a child king whose rule was overshadowed by his uncle and Lord Protector, the Duke of Gloucester. The image is taken from "The History of England" by Paul de Rapin-Thoyras, a renowned historical account that provides valuable insights into this tumultuous period. The oval-shaped frame adds a touch of elegance to the composition while emphasizing the regal stature of Edward V. Dressed in elaborate clothing adorned with fur and an ermine collar, Edward V exudes an aura of authority despite his tender age. His majestic crown symbolizes his sovereignty over both England and France during this era. This portrait offers us a glimpse into the past, allowing us to connect with one of Britain's most intriguing monarchs. It serves as a reminder that history is not only shaped by powerful rulers but also by those who seek power at any cost - such as Richard III, who deposed young Edward V to claim the throne for himself. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry and delve into its historical context, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the complexities and intrigues that defined medieval Europe's royal courts.
