EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print depicts the pivotal moment of the Battle of the Spurs, also known as the Battle of Courtrai or the Battle of Kortrijk, which took place on July 11, 1302, in present-day Belgium. The battle is named after the Flemish victory, during which the count of Flanders, Robert II of Artois, led his army against a much larger force of French knights. The print shows Robert d'Artois, dressed in his armor and mounted on horseback, being surrounded by a sea of Flemish infantrymen, who wielded pikes and axes. In the foreground, a Flemish soldier triumphantly holds the spurs of a fallen French knight, symbolizing the decisive defeat of the French cavalry. The French knights, who were renowned for their superiority on horseback, were taken aback by the bravery and discipline of the Flemish infantry, who fought tenaciously and effectively against them. The Battle of the Spurs was a significant turning point in the Franco-Flemish War, which lasted from 1300 to 1328. The victory boosted the morale of the Flemish people and strengthened their resolve to resist French rule. The eventual outcome of the war was the recognition of Flemish autonomy and the confirmation of their privileges, which contributed to the economic and cultural prosperity of the region. This historical print is a testament to the courage and determination of the Flemish people and their victory against the mighty French army. It is a reminder of the rich and complex history of Europe and the pivotal role that small, seemingly insignificant battles can play in shaping the course of history.
