EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1842 depicts King Edward III of England in his military attire. Standing tall with a drawn sword, the king exudes power and authority. He is adorned with a crown atop his head, symbolizing his royal status, and wears a helmet for protection on the battlefield. Edward III's suit of plate armor covers his body, providing both defense and intimidation to his adversaries. Underneath the armor, he sports a chainmail hauberk, adding an extra layer of security during combat. The surcoat he wears proudly displays the arms of England - three lions and fleurs-de-lys - representing strength and nobility. The artist Joseph Strutt meticulously handcolored this engraving as part of his Complete View of the Dress and Habits of the People of England series. His attention to detail brings out every intricate feature in this historical depiction. Dating back to the 14th century when Edward III reigned as king (1327-1377), this print offers us a glimpse into medieval English history. It showcases not only Edward III's military prowess but also highlights the fashion and style prevalent during that era. Preserved in private collection today, this artwork serves as a testament to British heritage and culture. Its significance lies not only in its artistic value but also in its ability to transport viewers back in time to witness one of England's most influential rulers dressed for battle.
