EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent exterior view of a fortress, built between 1038 and 1043 in Arques-la-Bataille, Normandy, France. The image captures the essence of medieval architecture with its square donjon and basse cour. Standing proudly on the southern bank of River Varennce, this fortress has witnessed centuries of history unfold within its walls. Originally constructed during the 11th century, this formidable stronghold underwent reconstruction by Henry I in 1123, adding to its grandeur and strength. The Romanesque style is evident in every stone and archway, reflecting an era defined by robust fortifications.
