EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the regal presence of Edward IV, King of England from 1461 to 1470 and again from 1471 until his death in 1483. The portrait, dating back to the early 19th century, showcases the monarch who grew up amidst the tumultuous Wars of the Roses. Edward IV's rise to power as the first Yorkist king was largely attributed to his alliance with Richard Neville, also known as The Kingmaker. This patronage is evident in his confident stance and dignified expression portrayed in this engraving. Dressed in a stylish coat and hat befitting his royal status, Edward IV exudes authority and sophistication. His profile is captured with meticulous detail by an unknown artist whose work has been preserved through "Biographical Illustrations" by Alfred Howard. The image offers a glimpse into history, showcasing not only Edward IV but also providing insight into fifteenth-century fashion trends. It serves as a reminder of the House of York's influence during this period and its impact on English monarchy. As we admire this portrait today, we are reminded of Edward IV's significant role in shaping medieval England while appreciating both the artistry behind it and its historical significance.
