The artwork, titled ""Bless the glorious memory of King William that crossed the Boyne water"", is part of the First Edition of Ballads of Famous Fights, published in 1920. In this color lithograph by C. Dudley Tennant, we witness King William III of Orange's triumphant victory over James II at the Battle of the Boyne. The image showcases an intense cavalry charge as soldiers on horseback clash with swords drawn amidst a river crossing. The composition exudes a sense of grandeur and power as it portrays armies mounted on majestic horses wading through the water. The artist skillfully captures every detail, from the determined expressions on each soldier's face to their meticulously rendered armor and weaponry. This historical moment holds great significance for both Ireland and England, symbolizing a turning point in their shared history. It marks King William III's successful campaign to secure Protestant rule in Britain and Ireland against Catholic opposition. Through this artwork, viewers are transported back to one of Europe's most significant battles during the 17th century.
