EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases King Charles I of England, exuding regal elegance as he sits atop a majestic horse. Clad in plate armor, with a sash and boots, the king holds his sword with an air of authority. The emblems adorning the artwork serve as poignant reminders of significant events that shaped English history. The symbols depicted represent pivotal moments such as the commencement of the Civil War, the tragic death of King Charles I, the era of Commonwealth rule, and finally, the Restoration period. Each emblem tells a story within this visual narrative. Handcoloured steel engraving brings life to this historical masterpiece originally created by Mary Ann Rundall for her book "A Symbolical History of England". Rundall's work was published in 1839 and aimed to educate young ladies through mnemonic emblems. Through this print, viewers are transported back in time to witness not only a powerful monarch but also gain insight into key chapters in English history. The detailed costume and symbolic illustrations provide an educational experience that transcends mere aesthetics. Bridgeman Images has skillfully preserved this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection. It serves as a reminder that art can be both visually stunning and intellectually stimulating—a testament to its enduring value throughout generations.
