EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history during the Hundred Years War. The illustration, created by Job (pseudonym for Onfray de Breville) in 1896, depicts King Philippe VI of Valois seeking asylum at the Chateau de Broye after being injured in the Battle of Crecy in 1346. The image portrays the weariness and defeat that enveloped Europe during this tumultuous era. The vibrant colors bring to life the soldiers' fatigue as they guard their fallen king outside the fortress walls. Philippe VI is shown with his arm bandaged, symbolizing both his physical injury and his wounded pride as he seeks protection within these fortified walls. The Chateau de Broye stands tall and imposing, representing safety amidst chaos. Its stone facade serves as a stark contrast to the battle-worn soldiers and tattered flags scattered across the scene. This illustration offers viewers a glimpse into medieval warfare tactics and fortifications while highlighting one man's desperate plea for sanctuary. Job's attention to detail transports us back to this significant historical event, allowing us to witness firsthand the consequences of war on both individuals and nations alike. It serves as a reminder of how conflicts can shape destinies and alter landscapes forever. This powerful artwork from Fine Art Finder reminds us of our shared past, urging us to reflect on humanity's capacity for resilience even in times of great turmoil.
