EDITORS COMMENTS
King William III, also known as William of Orange, is depicted in this handcoloured steel engraving as he courageously leads his troops across the River Boyne in Ireland during the Battle of the Boyne on 1 July 1690. The defeated Catholic King James II, once ruler of England, Scotland, and Ireland, is shown in a state of disarray as he flees on horseback, having lost his wig and hat in the chaos of the battle. The contrast between the two monarchs is stark; William, dressed in regal ermine robes and 22-carat gold crown, confidently holds his orb and sceptre, while James, clad in Roman sandals and simple livery, appears disheveled and defeated. The engraving, created by John Leech from an illustration in Gilbert Abbott A Beckett's Comic History of England, published by Bradbury, Agnew & Co. in London in 1880, offers a humorous take on the historical event. The image is filled with caricatured details, such as the king's servants attempting to catch his wig and hat as they float downstream, and the exaggerated expressions of the riders in the background. The scene is further enhanced by the use of color, which adds vibrancy and depth to the intricately detailed engraving. The Battle of the Boyne marked a significant turning point in the struggle for religious and political power in England, Scotland, and Ireland, and this engraving offers a unique and entertaining perspective on this pivotal moment in history.
