EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant colour lithograph print of The Saxons by John Hassall captures the essence of early English history with its rich hues and intricate details. The image, originally created for My very first little History Book in the early 20th century, depicts a group of Saxons clad in traditional linen garments, showcasing their distinctive hair styles and accessories.
The Saxons were a Germanic tribe that settled in England during the Dark Ages, shaping the country's culture and heritage. This illustration beautifully portrays their unique appearance and way of life, offering a glimpse into a bygone era.
Hassall's skillful use of color brings this historical scene to life, making it feel as though we are witnessing the Saxons in action. From their flowing linen fabrics to the subtle variations in hair color, every detail is meticulously rendered with precision and care.
As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to an age when Britain was still known as Britannia and Anglo-Saxon tribes roamed the land. It serves as a reminder of our shared history and cultural roots, inviting us to explore and appreciate the legacy left behind by these ancient peoples.
