EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the Battle of Falkirk on 22 July 1298 during the First War of Scottish Independence. The image showcases the intensity and chaos of this significant clash between English and Scottish forces. Led by King Edward I of England, the English army emerged victorious against William Wallace and his Scots. It was after this battle that Wallace resigned as Guardian of Scotland, marking a turning point in the conflict.

Flags flutter in the wind as they symbolize their respective countries' allegiance. Amidst all this violence and turmoil stands an imposing figure - The Bishop of Durham himself. With arm raised in a commanding gesture, he leads his troops fearlessly into battle while representing both religion and monarchy. This powerful image not only portrays the brutality of war but also highlights themes such as courage, loyalty to one's country or cause, and religious influence during medieval times. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of how conflicts shape nations and individuals alike. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst chaos and bloodshed, leaders emerge who can inspire others to fight for what they believe is right.
