EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases King Henry II, the renowned monarch of England in 1789. The portrait, engraved by an anonymous artist, is a part of Harrison's Edition of Rapin's History of England by Paul Rapin de Thoyras. This historical piece takes us back to medieval times, offering a glimpse into the life and reign of this influential British king. King Henry II, also known as Henry Curtmantle or FitzEmpress, was a member of the Angevin dynasty and the Plantagenet family. His rule spanned from 1154 to 1189 during the 12th century. As depicted in this engraving, he exudes regal authority with his sceptre held firmly in hand and wearing a majestic crown. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this image while emphasizing its historical significance. It transports us back to the 18th century when this print was created by John Harrison in London. As we admire this portrayal of King Henry II, we are reminded not only of his importance within English history but also how art can preserve our past for future generations. This print serves as a testament to both the skillful craftsmanship behind it and the enduring legacy left by one of Britain's most notable rulers.
