EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historical print, we witness a significant moment in English history as Hugh Latimer, an influential Protestant preacher and martyr, presents the Bible to King Henry VIII. The image transports us back to the 16th century when religious tensions were high and England was undergoing a profound transformation. Hugh Latimer, born between 1485 and 1490, played a vital role in promoting Protestantism during the Reformation era. His dedication to spreading the word of God led him to present the sacred text directly to King Henry VIII himself. This encounter symbolizes both Latimer's unwavering commitment to his faith and his boldness in challenging traditional Catholic beliefs. King Henry VIII, known for his tumultuous reign and break with Rome, stands before us as he receives this precious gift from Latimer. The scene captures an intriguing power dynamic between these two figures - one representing religious authority while the other embodies political might. The artist skillfully employs vibrant colors that bring life to this historic tableau. The horizontal composition allows us to appreciate every detail of their attire and expressions; it immerses us into their world where religion clashed with monarchy. This remarkable illustration is part of Lord Brougham's renowned publication "Old England's Worthies" which offers valuable insights into key figures who shaped British history. Preserved since its original release in London circa 1880s, Ken Welsh has masterfully reproduced this print for our enjoyment today.
