EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the Battle of Agincourt on 25 October 1415. The image showcases King Henry V of England and John I of Alencon, both poised for battle with determination etched upon their faces. The intensity is palpable as these two noble leaders face off amidst the chaos and violence that surrounds them. The Battle of Agincourt was a significant turning point in the Hundred Years War, resulting in a resounding victory for the English forces. This triumph not only crippled France but also marked the beginning of a new era in this long-standing conflict. John I of Alencon, known as "the Sage" tragically lost his life during this fierce battle. His bravery and sacrifice are immortalized within this poignant image. Printed by Cassell Petter & Galpin around 1880, this historical artifact transports us back to an era where warfare was brutal and unforgiving. Through its monochrome composition, we can almost feel the weight of their armor and hear the clash of swords echoing across the battlefield. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded not only of the immense human cost but also of how moments like these shape nations and alter destinies forever. It serves as a powerful reminder that history is made up not just by kings and generals but also by ordinary men who fought valiantly for what they believed in.
