EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases William III and Mary II, the influential King and Queen of Great Britain and Ireland during the late 17th century. The image captures their regal presence as they sit side by side, adorned in exquisite royal attire. William of Orange, a prominent Protestant leader (1650-1702), and Mary Stuart (1662-1694) ascended to power following the Glorious Revolution. Together, they ruled until Mary's untimely demise in 1694, after which William continued his reign alone. The photograph is part of the renowned Kings and Queens collection by Eleanor and Herbert Farjeon from 1932. It offers a glimpse into this fascinating period in British history when political turmoil gave way to significant change. The couple's deep connection is evident through their intertwined hands, symbolizing unity amidst challenging times. Notably present in the portrait is a charming King Charles Spaniel at their feet, emphasizing their love for animals. Surrounding them are cherubs or putti representing innocence and purity. This image not only serves as a historical record but also highlights the fashion trends of that era with its detailed depiction of clothing styles worn by both monarchs. Their majestic crowns further emphasize their status as rulers. Rosalind Thornycroft skillfully captured this momentous occasion through her lens while preserving every intricate detail for future generations to appreciate. This remarkable print from Heritage Images allows us to delve into an important chapter in British monarchy—a time marked by rebellion, restoration, revolution—and witness firsthand the faces behind these transformative events.
