EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: "Richard I Mortally Wounded by an Arrow Shot by Bertram de Gourdon from the Walls of the Castle of Chilus, 1773". This print depicts a significant historical event that unfolded in the 12th century. The scene captures the moment when Richard I, also known as Richard the Lionheart, was mortally wounded by an arrow shot by Bertram de Gourdon from the walls of Château de Chalus in France. The image is an engraving created by Samuel Wale in 1773 and featured in Temple Sydney's book titled "A New and Complete History of England". It showcases a dramatic encounter between two figures on horseback - King Richard I and Bertram de Gourdon. The intense emotion is palpable as Richard clutches his chest, realizing he has been struck with a poisoned arrow. The historic significance lies not only in this fateful encounter but also in Richard I's legacy as one of England's revered monarchs.
