EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print showcases an enigmatic depiction of King Henry II of England, also known as Henry FitzEmpress or Henry Plantagenet, from the 12th century. The image is derived from an engraved portrait housed in the esteemed British Museum, and was published in "The Portrait Book of Our Kings and Queens 1066-1911," edited by T. Leman Hare. Henry II, born in 1133, reigned as King of England from 1154 until his death in 1189. He was the first Angevin king of England, hailing from the House of Anjou in France. Known for his strong and determined rule, Henry II expanded the English monarchy's reach and influence, making significant strides in legal reforms and centralizing the administration. The photograph captures Henry II in a regal pose, donning the crown and ermine-trimmed mantle of the English monarchy. His intense gaze and stern expression convey a sense of authority and power. The image, though a 20th-century reproduction, transports us back to the 12th century, offering a glimpse into the life and legacy of one of England's most influential monarchs. This photograph print is a testament to the enduring allure of historical figures and the power of art to preserve their stories for generations to come. It is a must-have for any history or art enthusiast, and a valuable addition to any collection. The print's provenance, traced back to the British Museum, further adds to its historical significance and authenticity.
