EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Queen Anne intercedes from Sir Simon Burley, 1388" by James William Edmund Doyle takes us back to a significant moment in history. Set in the 14th century, the image portrays Queen Anne of Bohemia (1366-1394) on her knees, bowing in supplication for intercession with Gloucester and Arundel on behalf of Sir Simon Burley (1336-1388). Despite her earnest plea, her efforts seem to be in vain. This powerful depiction captures the tension and emotion within the scene. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully conveys the interior setting and period costumes worn by both men and women. The colors used add depth and richness to this historical tableau. As we delve into this snapshot from A Chronicle of England B. C. 55 - A. D. 1485 by James E. Doyle, we are transported back to a time when monarchs held immense power and influence over their subjects' lives. Queen Anne's desperate act reveals not only her determination but also highlights the complexities of political alliances during that era. James William Edmund Doyle's engraving masterfully immortalizes this pivotal moment in English history, reminding us of the struggles faced by those seeking justice or mercy from those in positions of authority. This print serves as a testament to both Queen Anne's unwavering commitment and Sir Simon Burley's unfortunate fate at the hands of his adversaries – Duke Thomas of Woodstock (Gloucester) and Richard FitzAlan (Arundel). Overall, this remarkable artwork offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon an intriguing chapter from our past while appreciating James William Edmund Doyle's artistic talent for capturing historical narratives through visual storytelling.
