EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the historic moment when William of Normandy and his loyal followers make their daring landing in England. The image, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, showcases the dramatic scene as it unfolds. As William's ship approaches the shores of England, his determined expression reflects both anticipation and resolve. Behind him, a fleet of vessels filled with his devoted followers can be seen making their way towards land. This pivotal event marked the beginning of one of history's most significant battles - the Battle of Hastings. The print is part of a private collection and was originally featured in "The Peoples History of Great Britain" published by Liverpool Courier in 1895. Through digital restoration techniques, this image has been meticulously cleaned to preserve its historical significance. With its rich detail and evocative atmosphere, this engraving transports viewers back to a time when nations were forged through conquests and alliances. It serves as a reminder not only of William's audacious invasion but also highlights the enduring legacy he left on British culture and history. From Germany to England, this artwork transcends borders and speaks to our shared European heritage.
