EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history as King Alfred incites the Anglo Saxons to resist the invasion of the Danes. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this engraving exudes a sense of urgency and determination. Intricately detailed, the image showcases King Alfred standing tall amidst his fellow countrymen, rallying them to defend their land against Viking invaders. The composition is filled with tension and anticipation, as boats and ships symbolize both resistance and impending danger. The scene depicted here is from "The Comprehensive History of England" published by Gresham Publishing in 1902. It serves as a visual representation of one of England's most iconic historical figures inspiring his people to fight for their freedom. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness this crucial moment when unity and courage prevailed over adversity. The artist masterfully captures not only the physicality but also the spirit of these brave warriors who stood firm against foreign forces. This print from Bridgeman Images reminds us that even in times of great turmoil, leaders like King Alfred can inspire ordinary individuals to rise above themselves for a greater cause. It serves as a testament to human resilience and our ability to overcome challenges through collective action.
