EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic presence of the Richard Coeur de Lion statue, standing tall in Old Palace Yard, Westminster, London. The intricate details of this equestrian bronze figure come to life as we gaze up at its imposing stature. Crafted by Carlo Marochetti in 1860, this remarkable work of art pays homage to one of England's most celebrated historical figures - Richard the Lionheart. Eric de Mare skillfully photographed this iconic statue between 1945 and 1980, preserving a moment frozen in time. Through his lens, we are transported back to an era where Victorian grandeur still permeated the streets of London. The oblique angle chosen by De Mare adds depth and drama to the composition, emphasizing both the strength and vulnerability embodied by Richard Coeur de Lion. As we admire this photograph print from Historic England's collection, it is impossible not to be captivated by the rich history that surrounds it. This image serves as a reminder of our nation's past and invites us to reflect on the enduring legacy left behind by those who came before us. Let it serve as a testament to bravery and leadership while igniting our curiosity about medieval times when knights roamed these very streets with honor and valor.
