EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Death of the King-Maker, 14 April 1471" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image captures the intense battle scene during the Battle of Barnet, where Richard Neville, also known as the Earl of Warwick or "the Kingmaker" met his tragic end. In this vividly colored lithograph from A Chronicle of England BC 55 to AD 1485, published in London in 1863 by James William Edmund Doyle, we witness the chaos and brutality of medieval warfare. Clad in armor and wielding swords and polearms, soldiers clash amidst a dense forest backdrop. The atmosphere is charged with tension as shields are raised for protection against incoming attacks. The fallen body lying at the center signifies the demise of Richard Neville himself. This influential figure played a crucial role in shaping English history during this period but ultimately met his fate on that fateful day. His death marked a turning point in British history and had far-reaching consequences for both politics and society. This photograph not only serves as an artistic representation but also offers valuable insights into historical events that have shaped our world today. It reminds us of the sacrifices made by individuals like Richard Neville who fought fiercely for their beliefs and ambitions during tumultuous times.
