Henry VI Crowned King Of France In The Church Of Notre Dame At Paris

39 x 24 cm (15.25 x 9.5 inches)
This antique engraving was created in 1777 in London, England for William Augustus Russel's impressive work about the history of England. His work included famous scenes, portraits of royalty and ships.
It was made by copper plate engraving, has hand painted water colouring and well defined plate marks, is beautifully detailed and is on handmade, chain-linked paper. The engraving is on one side, the other side is blank. The paper has a lovely aged, creamy white patina. The border around the print is a little larger than shown. It is in good condition considering it is over 240 years old. (Has been skilfully strengthened with archival tape on the rear).
Henry VI (1421 - 1471) was King of England and disputed King of France. He was shy, well-intentioned, and averse to war. In 1461 Henry was imprisoned in the Tower of London. Henry died there, possibly killed on the orders of King Edward. He founded Eton College, King's College, Cambridge, and All Souls College, Oxford. Shakespeare wrote a trilogy of plays about his life.
