EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white illustration takes us back in time to the historic meeting between King Charles II of England and his sister, Duchess Henrietta of Orleans, at Dover in 1670. The image is a print from "The National and Domestic History of England" by William Aubrey, published in London around 1890. In this clandestine encounter, the brother and sister are depicted standing on English soil with the iconic White Cliffs of Dover as their backdrop. Their expressions reveal a mix of excitement, anticipation, and perhaps even trepidation as they engage in what would become a pivotal moment for both countries. This meeting was not merely a family reunion but held significant political implications. It marked the negotiation of a secret treaty between England and France, aiming to solidify an alliance against common enemies. As King Charles II extends his hand towards Duchess Henrietta (also known as Anne or Duchesse Henriette), one can sense the weighty responsibility they both carry on their shoulders. Ken Welsh's masterful reproduction captures every intricate detail with precision – from the elaborate attire worn by these royal figures to their regal postures that exude power and authority. This historical snapshot serves as a reminder of how diplomacy often operates behind closed doors while shaping nations' destinies. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, we are transported back through time to witness this extraordinary moment when two siblings navigate personal connections amidst complex political landscapes.
