EDITORS COMMENTS
The Turning Point in the Battle of Hastings: A Historic Moment Captured". This chromolithograph, created by Charles Alfred Stothard and reproduced by William Mossman, transports us back to one of the most pivotal moments in English history. The scene depicts the turning point in the Battle of Hastings, a clash that forever altered the course of Britain's destiny. In this artwork, we witness William Duke of Normandy raising his helmet to reveal his determined face. His commanding presence instills confidence among his troops as they rally together for victory. Bishop Odo stands beside him, passionately urging on their fearful Norman cavalry to regroup and fight with renewed vigor. The attention to detail in this print is remarkable, capturing both the intensity and grandeur of this historic event. Every stroke brings life to each figure depicted - from the resolute expression on William's face to Odo's fervent gestures. Originally commissioned for Rev. John Collingwood Bruces' book "The Bayeux Tapestry Elucidated" published in 1856, this chromolithograph showcases Stothard's mastery as an illustrator. Its inclusion within a publication by the Society of Antiquaries further solidifies its significance as a valuable historical document. As we gaze upon this print today, we are reminded not only of England's rich past but also its enduring spirit and resilience. It serves as a testament to those who fought bravely during that fateful battle and shaped our nation's future. This fine art print from Bridgeman Images allows us to bring home a piece of history - an exquisite reminder of how one moment can change everything.
