EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to witness a poignant moment in history. Depicting Elizabeth Woodville, the Queen Consort of King Edward IV of England, surrendering her beloved son, it encapsulates the complexities and emotions that defined medieval royalty. In this black and white illustration from William Aubrey's "The National and Domestic History of England" published around 1890, we are transported to an era where power struggles were rife and alliances were forged through strategic marriages. Elizabeth Woodville, with her regal grace and strength, is seen relinquishing her son - a symbol of sacrifice for the greater good of their kingdom. The image evokes a sense of melancholy as we contemplate the weight borne by queens during this tumultuous period. It reminds us that even those who held positions of authority were not immune to heart-wrenching decisions for the betterment of their realm. Ken Welsh's skillful reproduction allows us to appreciate every intricate detail within this mediaeval scene. The fine lines and shading transport us into a world long gone but forever immortalized through art. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, let us reflect on the sacrifices made by women like Elizabeth Woodville – mothers torn between love for their children and duty towards their nation. This photograph serves as a testament to both her strength as an individual and her unwavering commitment as Queen Consort alongside King Edward IV during one of England's most transformative periods.
