In the spring of 451 Attila, King of the Huns, crossed the Rhine into Belgic Gaul, the cities of which were sacked by his army. But the Franks, like the Goths, rose to aid in stemming the tide of an invasion mere savage and brutal than any experienced before. In the great and decisive battle of Chalons the Franks, under their king, Meroveus, fought as allies in the ranks of the victorious Roman army, which was led by Aetius.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures the pivotal moment in history when the Franks played a crucial role in defeating the fearsome Huns. In 451 AD, Attila, King of the Huns, crossed the Rhine into Belgic Gaul, leaving destruction in his wake. However, the Franks rose to the occasion and joined forces with the Roman army under Aetius to stand against this brutal invasion. Led by their king Meroveus, the Franks fought valiantly alongside their allies at the decisive battle of Chalons. This historic event marked a turning point as they successfully pushed back Attila's forces and secured victory for their side. The intricate details of this lithograph bring to life this epic clash between two powerful civilizations. The image depicts warriors from both sides locked in fierce combat amidst a backdrop of wild roses symbolizing courage and resilience.

It serves as a testament to human determination and unity in times of great peril. This print is not just a visual representation but also a historical narrative that honors the legacy of those who stood together against tyranny and emerged victorious.
