EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a rare and intriguing artifact from medieval England: a silver penny from the reign of William II, also known as William Rufus or William the Red (circa 1056-1100). As the second son of William I, or William the Conqueror, William Rufus played a significant role in English history. William Rufus' coinage is notable for its distinctive design, which features a bust of the king on the obverse and a cross on the reverse. The obverse depicts William with a full beard and a serious expression, while the reverse displays a cross patée, a type of cross popular during the Norman period. The inscription on the coin reads "WILLELMUS REX," indicating that it was minted during William Rufus' reign. During William Rufus' time, England was a major trading power in Europe. The production and circulation of coins like this one facilitated commerce, enabling merchants to buy and sell goods both domestically and abroad. The use of a standardized currency also helped to strengthen the central government's control over the economy. William Rufus' reign was marked by significant political instability and conflict, including a rebellion by his elder brother Robert Curthose, Duke of Normandy, and a dispute over the succession following William Rufus' untimely death in 1100. Despite these challenges, William Rufus left a lasting impact on English history, particularly through his efforts to expand the royal domain and promote economic development. This beautiful print offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of political intrigue, economic growth, and artistic innovation. It serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage that continues to shape our world today.
