EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases Cecely Nevile, the Duchess of York, in all her regal glory. Created by an English School artist in the 18th century, this print is a testament to the rich history and elegance of the era. Cecely Nevile was not just any noblewoman; she was the daughter of Ralph I, Earl of Westmoreland, and went on to become the wife of Richard Plantaqenet, Duke of York. As a mother to Kings Edward IV and Richard III, she played an integral role in shaping England's monarchy. The enchanting image captures Cecely's beauty and grace as she gazes out from a south window at Penreth Church in Cumberland. It is said that this very window held great significance for her during her lifetime. This historical piece has been immortalized through an illustration featured in Shakespeare Illustrated (S & E Harding, 1793), showcasing its enduring appeal even centuries later. The fine details and intricate engravings bring Cecely Nevile's story to life. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable print from their private collection with utmost pride. Its inclusion here allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill behind it and its significant place within history itself.
