EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Bess asked if he was asleep" we are transported back in time to the enchanting world of Sir Thomas More's household. The image, captured by Charles Edmund Brock, invites us to delve into the pages of history and witness a tender moment between father and daughter. The scene unfolds with Bess, a young girl adorned in exquisite period costume, cautiously approaching her slumbering father. As she tiptoes through the room filled with hay, one can almost hear the gentle rustling beneath her feet. With an expression of curiosity mixed with concern on her face, Bess leans closer to Sir Thomas More's resting figure. This intimate portrayal not only showcases the intricate attention to detail in both costumes and setting but also offers a glimpse into the dynamics within this historical household. It hints at Anne Manning's skillful storytelling as depicted in "The Household of Sir Thomas More" published by J M Dent in 1906. Through this evocative engraving brought to life by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of Henry VIII's reign and his courtly entourage. However, it is within these quieter moments that we truly grasp the humanity behind these grand historical figures. As viewers engage with this mesmerizing print from Fine Art Finder, they are invited to imagine themselves stepping into this timeless narrative - where love and familial bonds transcend time itself.
