EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the regal presence of Richard II, King of England (1377-99), as depicted in a rare cig card from the Mary Evans Picture Library. The young monarch, dressed in the robes of state and adorned with the symbols of his power, holds the sceptre and orb, emblems of his royal authority. The intricate detail of the ermine-trimmed robe and the rich textures of the fabric and jewels convey the opulence of the royal court. Richard II's reign, which began when he was just ten years old, was marked by political instability and conflict. He came to the throne following the death of his father, Edward III, and faced challenges from various factions vying for power. Despite these challenges, Richard II is remembered for his patronage of the arts and his efforts to centralize the English monarchy. The cig card, produced around the turn of the 20th century, offers a glimpse into the past and provides a fascinating insight into how Richard II was perceived during this period. The image on the card is based on a painting from around 1400, which is now lost to history. The cig card, with its intricate detail and vivid colors, serves as a reminder of the rich history of England and the complex and intriguing figures who shaped its course. Richard II's reign ended in 1399 when he was deposed by Henry Bolingbroke, who went on to become Henry IV. The cig card, with its image of a young and confident king, offers a poignant reminder of the brief and tumultuous reign of Richard II and the enduring allure of English history.
