EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print titled "Comic Early English History: Invasion of William the Conqueror" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 20th century, this color lithograph captures the essence of humor and entertainment while depicting a crucial event. The illustration is part of the renowned comic series "Snap Shots from Early English History" by "Wil The Parkes" published around 1904. It showcases the invasion led by William the Conqueror, also known as King William I, in 1066. The comical twist adds an amusing touch to this historic scene. Intriguingly detailed, we see worried Saxons falling on a sandy beach as they witness their land being invaded. The ships approaching from afar create anticipation and tension within the artwork. This playful representation offers a lighthearted take on what was undoubtedly a serious historical event. The use of vivid colors brings life to each character and enhances our engagement with this early period in England's past. Through its humorous approach, this print not only educates but also entertains viewers about pre-invasion England. Displayed proudly within a private collection, this artwork exemplifies how comics can be used to explore history while providing amusement for audiences young and old alike. Bridgeman Images has preserved this delightful piece that reminds us that even significant moments can be seen through a lens of humor and enjoyment.
