About the Item

An engraved portrait of Edward I, also known as Edward Longshanks and the Hammer of the Scots, who was King of England from 1272 to 1307. The text beneath the image indicates that the engraving is based on the remains of an ancient statue of King Edward I, which was over the gate of Caernarvon Castle, a significant location as Edward I was responsible for the construction of several large castles in Wales to maintain his control over the region. Edward I is known for his military campaigns and efforts to subjugate Wales and Scotland, leading to several wars and conflicts during his reign. His moniker, the Hammer of the Scots, comes from his campaigns against the Scots and their resistance leaders, like William Wallace and later Robert the Bruce. The portrait was published as directed by the act on May 1st, 1787, which suggests a deliberate effort to comply with copyright registration laws of the time.

1787 Engraved Portrait of King Henry IV - Lancastrian Sovereign

Located in Langweer, NL

An engraved portrait of Henry IV, King of England. Henry IV was the first English monarch from the Lancastrian branch of the Plantagenets and came to power after deposing his cousin Richard II in 1399. His reign was marked by the start of the 15-year civil strife known as the Wars of the Roses, numerous rebellions, and efforts to consolidate his power and legitimize his somewhat tenuous claim to the throne. The text mentions that the portrait is based on a picture at Hampton Court, which is a royal palace in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. Published as the act directs on June 18th, 1787, this engraving is part of the collection for "Harrington's Edition of Rapin's History of England."
