After the Battle of Hastings, c. 1880
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant lithograph that captures the aftermath of one of history's most significant battles. The image portrays a somber scene in the English countryside as relatives of the vanquished gather to carry away their fallen loved ones. It serves as a powerful reminder of the devastating consequences and human cost of war. The artist skillfully depicts the desolation and grief that permeate this post-battle landscape. The defeated soldiers lie motionless on the ground, their lifeless bodies a stark contrast to the vibrant greenery surrounding them. In the distance, an imposing castle stands as a symbol of power and conquest, casting its shadow over both victor and vanquished alike. This print is part of Paul Lacroix's renowned work "Military and Religious Life in the Middle Ages" published in London in 1880. Lacroix's meticulous attention to historical detail brings authenticity to this depiction, transporting viewers back to October 14th, 1066 - when William Duke of Normandy triumphed over Harold II King of England. Through this haunting image, we are reminded not only of specific historical events but also universal themes such as loss, sacrifice, and resilience. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring struggle for power and survival throughout time. As we gaze upon this lithograph from our private collection today, let us reflect on how far we have come since those tumultuous days while acknowledging that echoes from past conflicts still resonate within our
