EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense and historic moment when Louis VI, also known as Louis the Large, valiantly fought against the English in the legendary battle of Brenneville. The engraving, created by French School in the 19th century, showcases a pivotal scene from Histoire de France by Colart. In this remarkable depiction, Louis VI emerges as a formidable ruler and monarch. Clad in his majestic armor with sword and shield at hand, he fearlessly leads his troops into combat on horseback. His banner proudly waves high above him as a symbol of his unwavering determination to defend his kingdom. The battlefield is strewn with fallen soldiers - some dead or dying - testament to the fierce clash between these two forces during the 11th and 12th centuries. This image not only portrays an epic fight but also serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made on both sides. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are transported back in time to witness one of history's most significant battles unfold before our eyes. It is through prints like these that we can appreciate and honor those who fought bravely for their beliefs and kingdoms.
