EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "One shaft, falling from heaven, pierced his right eye" by William Hatherell takes us back in time to the historic Battle of Hastings. The image depicts a crucial moment during this monumental clash between the Normans and the Saxons. With remarkable precision and attention to detail, Hatherell captures the intensity and brutality of war. The focal point of the artwork is a warrior who finds himself at the receiving end of an arrow that has descended from above like a divine intervention. The piercing impact on his right eye is vividly portrayed, conveying both physical agony and emotional turmoil. This single event symbolizes not only the personal tragedy suffered by this individual but also represents a turning point in history. The composition skillfully combines elements of action, drama, and historical accuracy. Through careful use of color lithography techniques, Hatherell brings life to each stroke on paper, enhancing our understanding and appreciation for this pivotal moment in English history.
