EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in British history, as Mercia and Wales clash in a fierce battle. The Welsh have made the controversial decision to side with the Danish invaders, prompting Ethelflaed, sister of Edward the Elder and daughter of Alfred the Great, to lead her Mercian cavalry into action with unwavering enthusiasm.
The year is 916, and tensions are running high as these historical events unfold on the battlefield. The Mercians are determined to defend their land against both the Welsh traitors and the ruthless Danish forces who threaten their sovereignty. Ethelflaed's leadership shines through as she fearlessly commands her troops in this intense confrontation.
As swords clash and arrows fly, it is clear that this conflict will shape the course of history for generations to come. The bravery and determination of those involved in this epic struggle are immortalized in this striking image from Mary Evans Picture Library.
Witnessing this dramatic scene unfold before our eyes serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by our ancestors to secure a better future for us all. Let us honor their legacy by remembering their courage and resilience in times of adversity.
