Clarkson Stanfield, known for his marine paintings, created "Edwy and Elgiva" in an unknown date. The watercolor depicts a dramatic scene with a man in a robe placing a crown on the head of a young man while a woman sits nearby. The setting is a grand hall with arches, a detailed column, and a glimpse of a figure through a doorway. The scene likely represents a historical event, possibly from the reign of King Edwy of England and his wife Elgiva. The drawing's muted palette and detailed depiction of the architectural elements are typical of Stanfield's style.
