EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a significant moment in British history - the Ketts Rebellion of 1549. The image depicts Kett the Tanner, a courageous rebel leader, passionately addressing his fellow insurgents under the majestic Oak of Reformation at Mousehold Hill near Norwich, Norfolk. The scene is set amidst the picturesque countryside of England, with lush greenery and rolling hills framing this historic gathering. As we observe closely, it becomes evident that Kett's powerful speech has captivated his audience. The men stand attentively around him, their faces reflecting determination and hope for change. This engraving by Charles Alfred Ashburton transports us to a time when political unrest was brewing in rural Britain. It symbolizes the spirit of opposition against enclosures and Tudor policies that threatened traditional ways of life in East Anglia. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia to this snapshot from the sixteenth century. It reminds us of our rich heritage and serves as a testament to the resilience of those who fought for justice during times of social upheaval. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded not only of Robert Kett's leadership but also how nature can serve as a backdrop for pivotal moments in history. This image encapsulates both the beauty and significance found within our country's rustic landscapes while highlighting an important chapter in British history that should never be forgotten.
