EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Ms 659 f. 271 r. The Battle of Avray in 1364,1477" a vellum manuscript created by the Master of Mary of Burgundy during the late 15th century. With kind permission from the Earl of Leicester and the Trustees of the Holkham Estate, this artwork offers a glimpse into one of history's most significant conflicts - the Hundred Years War between France and England. The illuminated manuscript depicts a scene from the Chronicles of the Counts of Flanders, capturing an intense battle at Avray in 1364. As soldiers clad in medieval armor clash on a sprawling battlefield, their lances and weapons poised for combat, a magnificent castle stands tall amidst all chaos. The intricate details showcased within this piece are truly remarkable; every stroke brings to life not only warfare but also elements like moats, cannons, and grisaille architecture that add depth to this historical narrative. This visual chronicle serves as a testament to both artistic skill and storytelling prowess prevalent during that era. By exploring this image further, viewers can immerse themselves in an age where castles served as dwellings for nobility while simultaneously becoming strategic strongholds during times of conflict. It is through such masterpieces that we gain insight into medieval society's housing structures and accommodations. As we admire Bridgeman Images' reproduction of this timeless artwork from Fine Art Finder, let us appreciate its significance in preserving history while marveling at its aesthetic beauty.
