EDITORS COMMENTS
Edward, The Black Prince at the Battle of Crecy". This illustration from "Children's Stories from English History" transports us back to the historic Battle of Crecy in 1346. Created by Joseph Finnemore, this color lithograph captures a pivotal moment in time. In the midst of chaos and conflict, we see Edward of Woodstock, also known as the Black Prince, leading his troops with unwavering determination. Mounted on horseback and clad in shining armor, he epitomizes bravery and chivalry. The Battle of Crecy was a significant event during the Hundred Years' War between England and France. Fought near Crecy in northern France on August 26th, it marked a turning point in military tactics with its innovative use of longbows by English archers. Finnemore's attention to detail brings this historical scene to life. Every soldier is meticulously depicted with their distinctive helmets and banners fluttering proudly above them. The atmosphere is charged with tension as horses gallop across the battlefield amidst billowing clouds of dust. This print serves as a reminder of our rich medieval history and the valor displayed by those who fought for their nations. It invites us to delve into stories that have shaped our past while honoring those who came before us. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, let us remember Edward's legacy as an iconic figure whose courage echoes through centuries.
