Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures the intensity and drama of the battle that unfolded in West Yorkshire, Northern England. The scene depicts the tragic demise of York during the Battle of Wakefield. The artist skillfully portrays the chaos and violence that engulfed Sandal Magna as soldiers clashed on the battlefield. With meticulous attention to detail, every figure is rendered with precision, conveying their determination or despair. This historical artwork was originally published as an illustration for William Bryan's book "Footprints of the World's History" in 1891.
