Lithograph, printed area 160 x 320mm (6¼ x 12½"). Rare.
The famous Ankerwycke yew, which stands beside the ruins of St Mary's Priory on the banks of the river Thames, near Wraysbury in Berkshire. Now 2,500 years old, the events associated with the tree include the sealing of the Magna Carta (the meadows of Runnymede are on the other side of the Thames) and King Henry VIII's courting of Anne Boleyn. St Mary's priory was built during the reign of Henry II, before passing into private lands following the dissolution of the monasteries. The site is now property of the National Trust.
