EDITORS COMMENTS
Edward III, the valiant King of England (1312-1377, reigned 1327-1377), is depicted in this evocative print as he leads his troops into battle against the French forces in the mid-14th century. With a determined expression on his face and clad in full armor, Edward brandishes a spear in one hand and holds a shield in the other, ready to engage in hand-to-hand combat. The stormy sky above, filled with ominous clouds, thunder, and lightning, adds to the sense of turmoil and chaos on the battlefield. Edward III was a pivotal figure in English history, renowned for his military prowess and his efforts to strengthen the monarchy. Born in 1312, he ascended to the throne at the age of 14 following the death of his father, Edward II. During his reign, Edward III successfully asserted his authority over his barons, reclaimed territories lost to France, and initiated the Hundred Years' War. This powerful image captures the essence of Edward III as a warrior king, leading his troops into battle with unwavering courage and resolve. The intricate details of his armor, the feathered crest on his helmet, and the disciplined ranks of his soldiers all serve to underscore the grandeur and majesty of the medieval monarch and his formidable military might.
