EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print, titled "Battles of the British Army, Cressy, Charge of the French Chivalry on the English Bowmen" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Richard Caton Woodville II and published in The Illustrated London News on September 1st, 1894, this artwork offers a vivid depiction of an intense battle scene during the Hundred Years War. The image showcases the clash between French chivalry and English bowmen at the Battle of Cressy. With their plate armor gleaming under the sun, mounted French knights charge towards a line of skilled English archers. The tension is palpable as arrows fly through the air while horses gallop forward with unwavering determination. Woodville's attention to detail brings this historical event to life. From every strand of horsehair to each individual soldier's expression, he captures both chaos and bravery in one frame. This print serves as a testament to not only military strategy but also technological advancements that played crucial roles during medieval warfare. As we admire this piece from Fine Art Finder's private collection, let it transport us back centuries ago when nations clashed for power and glory. It reminds us of the sacrifices made by soldiers who fought valiantly for their countries amidst tumultuous times.
