EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Portraits of Henry VIII's six wives from 1509" by Rosalind Thornycroft, dating back to 1932. The artist beautifully captures the essence and individuality of each woman who played a significant role in the tumultuous reign of King Henry VIII. In this remarkable composition, we are introduced to Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Catherine Howard, and Catherine Parr. These women were not only influential figures but also emblematic representatives of their time. Adorned in elegant attire that reflects the fashion trends of the era, these portraits transport us back to 16th century England. Each wife's unique personality is brought to life through Thornycroft's skillful brushwork and attention to detail. As we delve into English history through this print collector's masterpiece, we gain insight into the complexities surrounding marriage and monarchy during this period. From political alliances to personal tragedies and triumphs, these women navigated treacherous waters as they stood beside one of England's most infamous kings. The collaboration between Eleanor and Herbert Farjeon adds an additional layer of depth to this artwork with their book "Kings and Queens". Their words provide context for each portrait while complementing Thornycroft's illustrations seamlessly. This print serves as a visual testament to both artistic talent and historical significance—a timeless piece capturing an era long gone yet forever etched in our collective memory.
