  • Wars of the Roses Background Notes
    Wars of the Roses Background Notes Source 1 – Portrait of Edward III This portrait of Edward III hangs in the South Quire Aisle of St George’s Chapel. It shows Edward as an old man, wearing the crown of England, holding the orb of state, and carrying his 6 foot sword, piercing the crowns of Scotland and France. In addition, he wears the George suspended from a blue ribbon, the insignia of his great establishment, the Order of the Garter. In the account book of Henry Beaumont, Canon Treasurer [SGC XV.59.32], we find the following entry in 1615: Maii 24 Ki. Ed. 3. oure founders picture 8li et ultra ijs ijd per billam mri Baker viijli ijs ijd [May 24: King Edward III our founder’s picture £8 and an additional 2s 2d by Mr Baker’s bill £8 2s 2d] 3 days later, on the 27th May, an entry records that a curtain was made by Daye and Berdill to hang over the painting, at a cost of 17s 8d. In 1347 following triumphs in France, Edward wanted a way to reward those who had stood by him and helped him achieve his successes. His new Order of the Garter would do this. As originally conceived by Edward, the Order of the Garter would consist of twenty-four knights including the Sovereign. By 1352, this number had increased to twenty-six. These knights would be bound together by the chivalric code and loyalty to their monarch. There are many mysteries surrounding the identity of St George, but the most commonly believed is that he was a soldier in the Roman Army, part of the imperial guard of Emperor Diocletian.

  • Alaris Capture Pro Software
    The Red Rose of Lancaster? JOHN ASHDOWN—HILL In the fifteenth century the rival houses of Lancaster and York fought the ‘Wars of the Roses’ for possession of the crown. When, in 1485, the new Tudor monarch, Henry VII, brought these wars to an end, he united, by his mam'age to Elizabeth of York, the red rose of Lancaster and the white rose of York, to create a new emblem and a new dynasty. Thus was born the Tudor rose. So might run a popular account, and botanists, searching through the lists of medieval rose cultivars, have even proposed identifications of the red rose of Lancaster with Rosa Gallica and the white rose of York with Rosa Alba, while the bi-coloured Tudor rose is linked to the naturally occurring variegated sport of Rosa Gallica known as ‘Rosa Mundi’ (Rosa Gallica versicolor), or alternatively, to the rather paler Rosa Damascena versicolor. It should, perhaps, be observed that Rosa Gallica, while somewhat variable in colour. is more likely to be a shade of pink than bright red, and Rosa Alba, while generally white in colour, also occurs in shades of pink, so that in nature the colour~distinction between the two roses is not always clear. ‘Rosa Mundi’ is also strictly speaking variegated in two shades of pink, rather than being literally red and white.‘ The label ‘Wars of the Roses’was a late invention, first employed only in 1829, by Sir Walter Scott, in his romantic novel Anne of Geierstein.2 The story of the rose emblems might appear on casual inspection to be well-founded, for we find ample evidence of Tudor roses bespattering Tudor coinage and royal architecture, for example, at Hampton Court, the Henry VII chapel at Westminster, and at Cambridge, on the gates of Christ’s and St John’s Colleges, and in King’s College chapel.
