We witness the remarkable tale of a small group defending against overwhelming odds, showcasing the indomitable human spirit. Another masterpiece by Skelton brings to life Laura Secord's heroic journey in "Driving A Cow Before Her. " This captivating story recounts how Secord fearlessly passed American sentries during war, becoming an emblem of determination and patriotism.

"Long Live his Imperial Majesty Emperor William I" showcases Michael's talent as he immortalizes one of Germany's most influential leaders. Frederick the Great also graces our imagination through Michael's brushstrokes in "King of Prussia.

The clash between man and beast symbolizes humanity's relentless pursuit of victory even amidst adversity. "The burning of John Huss" confronts us with a somber moment in history that shaped religious freedom forever. Arthur C Michael captures both tragedy and defiance within this poignant artwork. Marshall continues her exploration into medieval times with "The Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II crowns himself King of Jerusalem. " Here we witness power intertwined with ambition on an epic scale. Traveling further back in time, we arrive at the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest in 9 AD.
