EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in British history - the coronation of Harold in 1066. However, the atmosphere is tense as astrologers are dismayed by the appearance of Halleys Comet in the sky. In their interpretation, this celestial event is seen as an evil omen, foreshadowing dark times ahead for Britain.
The Norman conquest looms on the horizon, and this sighting only adds to the sense of foreboding surrounding Harold's reign. The comet's presence serves as a stark reminder of the unpredictability and fragility of life during this tumultuous period.
As we gaze upon this historical image, we are transported back to January 1066 when events were unfolding that would shape the course of British history forever. The fear and uncertainty etched on the faces of those present at Harold's coronation are palpable, reflecting the gravity of what is to come.
Mary Evans Picture Library has expertly captured not just a moment in time but also a snapshot of human emotion and belief in supernatural forces. This print serves as a powerful reminder that even in times long past, people looked to the heavens for signs and portents that could guide or warn them through turbulent times.
