EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the harsh reality of 15th-century France, where the unpaid soldiers, known as Armagnacs, were forced to resort to banditry due to their inability to earn an honest living. The historical context of this photograph is circa 1476, during a time when France was plagued by these roaming bands of men. The Armagnacs were once valiant soldiers who had served their country loyally, but after years of unpaid wages and lack of employment opportunities, they were left with no choice but to turn to a life of crime. These bands of men, living in the wilderness, were a constant threat to the peace and security of the French countryside. This photograph, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of uncertainty and chaos. The rugged terrain and somber expressions on the faces of the men in the image serve as a reminder of the harsh realities of war and the human cost of conflict. The Armagnac Wars, a series of conflicts that lasted from 1411 to 1453, were a significant event in French history. These wars were marked by the involvement of various factions, including the Armagnacs and the Burgundians, who fought for power and control. The wars ended with the eventual defeat of the Armagnacs, but their legacy lived on in the form of the infamous name 'Armagnac,' which came to be synonymous with banditry and lawlessness. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the human side of history, offering a glimpse into the lives of those who were left behind in the wake of war and conflict. It serves as a reminder of the complexities of history and the enduring impact of the past on the present.
