EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the Battle of Crecy on the 26th of August, 1346. Illustrated by Richard Caton Woodville II and featured in Hutchinson's Story of the British Nation from around 1923, this lithograph takes us back to one of the defining conflicts during the Hundred Years' War.

The image showcases knights charging forward on horseback, their armor glinting under a darkened sky. Swords are raised high as flags flutter defiantly amidst a storm of arrows raining down upon them.
