EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Philip II, the influential King of Spain and Portugal, Naples, and Sicily during the years 1556-1598. Born in 1527 as the son of Emperor Charles V, Philip II's reign left an indelible mark on European history. Intriguingly, this engraving captures a significant moment in Philip II's life - his marriage to Mary I of England in 1554. However, tragedy struck when Queen Mary passed away just four years later in 1558. With her death came the loss of any claim that Philip II had to the English throne. The artistry behind this image is truly remarkable; it beautifully portrays not only the regal presence of King Philip II but also highlights his Hapsburg lineage. The attention to detail is evident through every stroke and etching. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are transported back to a time where power dynamics between nations were ever-changing and alliances were forged through strategic marriages. This print serves as a reminder of how one man's life can shape an entire era
