EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the 13th century, during the reign of Edward I, also known as Edward Longshanks or Edward Plantagenet. The image is based on the Dover seal from 1284 and was featured in the book "A History of Everyday Things in England - Done in two parts of which this is the first - 1066-1499" by Marjorie and C. D. B. Quennell. The illustration showcases a magnificent sailing ship that reflects the architectural style of that era. Its castellated structure stands proudly against a backdrop of water, symbolizing its importance for transportation and trade during medieval times. This ship would have been an essential mode of transport for goods and people across England's vast coastline. The attention to detail captured by artist Charles Henry Bourne Quennell brings this historical vessel to life, allowing us to imagine what it must have been like aboard such a majestic ship. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we can't help but marvel at how far transportation has come since those days. This print serves as a reminder of our rich history and provides insight into everyday life during one specific period in England's past. It offers an opportunity for reflection on how advancements in technology have shaped our present-day world while honoring the legacy left behind by figures like King Edward I, who played significant roles in shaping their respective eras.
