EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical moment from the 11th century, depicting Henri 1er (1008 - 1060) bravely leading his army against William the Conqueror (1027 - 1087). The image is taken from the late 14th-century manuscript "Grandes chroniques de Saint-Denis" and was created by an unknown artist. In this scene, we witness the intensity of battle as both sides clash on a vast field. The illumination beautifully captures the chaos and valor of medieval warfare. A crossbow-wielding archer takes aim at his enemies while soldiers armed with swords and shields engage in close combat. Henri's determination is evident as he leads his troops into fierce confrontation. The significance of this conflict lies in its historical context; it occurred in 1054 during a tumultuous period between England and France. This image serves as a testament to the struggles for power that defined European history during the Middle Ages. Leonard de Selva skillfully photographed this artwork, preserving its intricate details for future generations to appreciate. This print now resides in a private collection, allowing us to delve into our rich past through visual artistry. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time to witness an epic clash between two formidable forces – Henri Ier and William the Conqueror – forever immortalized within these pages of history.
