EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting engraving depicts the historic Siege of Rouen during the Hundred Years War between England and France. The scene unfolds in the summer of 1418, with the English army of King Henry V laying siege to the city of Rouen, which had been under the control of King Charles VI of France since 1368. The siege lasted from July 1418 to January 1419, marking a significant turning point in the long-lasting conflict. In the image, English soldiers, dressed in armor and wielding weapons such as crossbows and longbows, are seen encircling the city walls. The English army, known for its militarism and militarist approach, had laid a blockade around Rouen, cutting off supplies and resources to the city. The English also employed artillery, with bombs being loaded onto vessels to be launched at the city's defenses. The Siege of Rouen was a pivotal moment in the Hundred Years War, as it marked the first major victory for the English in France during the conflict. The city eventually surrendered in January 1419, leading to the Treaty of Troyes, which recognized Henry V as the heir to the French throne. The Middle Ages, an age of urban centers and cities, were marked by such military conflicts, with armies and servicemen playing a crucial role in shaping the political landscape of Europe. This evocative engraving offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of medieval militarism and the clash of armies during the Hundred Years War.
