EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, titled "Scene of carnage from the Battle of Hastings" takes us back to one of the most significant events in English history. Created by Charles Alfred Stothard and reproduced by William Mossman, this print vividly depicts the brutal aftermath of the famous battle that took place in 1066. The scene is filled with chaos and destruction as Saxons and Normans engage in a fierce struggle for supremacy. Infantry and cavalry clash amidst a sea of bloodshed, their weapons raised high in desperation. In the foreground, a group of valiant English soldiers defend a hill with lances and axes, their determination evident on their faces. Commissioned for Rev. John Collingwood Bruce's book "The Bayeux Tapestry Elucidated" this artwork offers an insightful glimpse into medieval warfare tactics and captures the intensity of this pivotal moment in British history.
