EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Matilda of Germany, the daughter of Henry I of England, who played a significant role in history during the 12th century. Matilda was a formidable figure, known for her marriages to Heinrich V, Holy Roman Emperor, and later Geoffrey of Anjou.
In 1102, Matilda invaded England with the goal of claiming the throne that rightfully belonged to her as Henry I's heir. During this time, she captured King Stephen and asserted her authority as Empress before ultimately being ejected from power.
Matilda's story is one of ambition, power struggles, and resilience in a male-dominated world. Her determination to assert her claim to the English throne despite facing numerous obstacles makes her a fascinating historical figure worth remembering.
This print captures Matilda's regal presence and strength as she navigated through turbulent times in medieval Europe. The intricate details and historical significance depicted in this image make it a valuable piece for anyone interested in learning more about this remarkable woman and the political landscape of 12th-century England.
