EDITORS COMMENTS
The Battle of Hastings, fought on October 14, 1066, was a pivotal moment in English history as it marked the end of Anglo-Saxon rule and the beginning of the Norman Conquest. In this vivid print from Mary Evans Picture Library, the armies of Harold Godwinson, the last Anglo-Saxon king of England, and William, Duke of Normandy, clash in a fierce and chaotic battlefield. Harold's Saxon army, formed in a shield wall, faces the disciplined and heavily armored Normans, led by their duke, who sits atop his horse, surveyng the battlefield with a determined expression. The air is thick with the clang of swords, the cries of warriors, and the dust raised by the hooves of charging horses. The Normans, known for their superior tactics and weaponry, press forward, their longbows and lances proving to be a formidable force against the Saxon shield wall. The Battle of Hastings was a hard-fought battle, with both sides suffering heavy losses. However, the turning point came when a stray arrow pierced Harold in the eye, leaving him mortally wounded. With their king fallen, the Saxon morale crumbled, and the Normans pressed forward, eventually securing a decisive victory. This print, with its intricate details and dynamic composition, transports us back to that fateful day in 1066, allowing us to witness the raw power and intensity of the Battle of Hastings. A defining moment in English history, this battle marked the beginning of a new era, with far-reaching consequences for the people of England and Europe as a whole.
