EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the intense and thrilling scene of Count of Chalons facing off against King Edward I in the Little War of Chalons. The artist, As Forrest, skillfully captures the essence of medieval warfare with his vivid portrayal. The Count's determination is palpable as he charges at Edward again and again, their lances clashing with tremendous force. We witness a moment frozen in time when the Count's lance splinters in his hand, a testament to the sheer power exerted by both adversaries. This image is taken from H E Marshall's renowned book "Our Island Story" published in 1905. It is important to note that this historical account may be biased towards a pro-British perspective. Nevertheless, it does not diminish the impact of this striking illustration. The vibrant colors bring life to every detail - from the majestic horses galloping fiercely across the battlefield to the knightly armor adorning each warrior. This snapshot encapsulates an era marked by chivalry and honor-bound combat. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of England's rich history and its legendary figures like King Edward I. It serves as a reminder that even amidst conflict and war, there exists beauty in artistry and valor on display.
