EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the pivotal moment when Edward III of England courageously crosses the Somme River, leading his army towards the historic Battle of Crecy. Illustrated by Richard Caton Woodville II and published in 1910, this lithograph showcases the grandeur and intensity of medieval warfare. As depicted in this artwork, Edward III's strategic maneuver to cross the Somme proved to be a turning point in the Hundred Years War. The French had planned to trap the English force between two rivers, but their plan failed as Edward's army successfully escaped and ultimately emerged victorious at Crecy on August 26th, 1346. The image portrays an array of armored knights mounted on majestic horses wading through the river with determination. Banners flutter proudly above them, displaying heraldry that symbolizes their allegiance and valor. The regalia worn by King Edward himself adds an air of authority and power to his presence amidst his troops. Woodville's attention to detail brings life to this historical event; every weapon is meticulously rendered - from lances poised for battle to spears held firmly by soldiers ready for combat. This engraving serves as a testament not only to Edward III's military prowess but also highlights the bravery and resilience displayed by his army during one of history's most significant conflicts. Through this evocative image, viewers are transported back in time, witnessing a crucial moment that would shape European history forever.
