EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history during the Battle of Crecy, an intense engagement of the Hundred Years War on 26th August 1346. The image showcases the sheer intensity and chaos of war as French cavalry valiantly charge towards English bowmen. With their horses galloping fiercely, lances raised high, and flags fluttering in the wind, these brave soldiers epitomize courage and determination. The composition of this landscape-format photograph perfectly encapsulates the magnitude of conflict that unfolded on that fateful day. It transports us back to a time when Europe was embroiled in a bitter struggle for supremacy. Amidst all this turmoil, horses emerge as both majestic creatures and powerful weapons of war. As we gaze upon this historical relic from Hulton Archive/Getty Images, it becomes evident that victory ultimately belonged to the English forces. Their strategic use of longbows proved devastating against their adversaries' cavalry charges. In this group scene captured by an unknown photographer, we witness men engaged in battle; their faces etched with determination and resolve. This print serves as a reminder not only of our shared human history but also highlights how conflicts have shaped our world throughout centuries
