EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the Battle of Poitiers, 1356. The morning of the battle is depicted with great attention to detail and emotion. In this illustration by R. Caton Woodville from 1894, we witness Edward the Black Prince bidding farewell to Cardinal de Perigord before heading into the chaos of war. The scene exudes tension and anticipation as two powerful figures stand amidst a sea of armored men ready for battle. Edward, known as the Black Prince, stands tall and resolute in his gleaming armor, while Cardinal de Perigord appears solemn yet determined in his clerical robes. The artist's skillful use of light and shadow adds depth to this dramatic composition. The flickering flames from nearby fires cast an eerie glow on their faces, emphasizing their contrasting roles - one representing military might and the other spiritual guidance. This image transports us back to a time when nations clashed over power and territory during the Hundred Years War between England and France. It serves as a reminder of how individuals from different walks of life were united by duty on that fateful day at Poitiers. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are reminded not only of the bravery displayed on that battlefield but also of the complex dynamics between church and state during medieval times. This print is truly a testament to both artistic talent and historical significance.
