Alfred's Last War - Opening Phases - A Glimpse into the Viking Invasion of England
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to a crucial period in history, capturing the opening phases of Alfred's Last War from October 892 to March 893. The image showcases a detailed map of the south-east of England, revealing an intricate network of Burhs – ancient fortifications built by King Alfred the Great during his reign as he defended his kingdom against Danish invaders. The monochrome aesthetics add a sense of timelessness and mystery to this historical artifact, transporting us to both the 9th century and early 20th century when this print was published. It serves as a visual testament to the resilience and strategic brilliance displayed by King Alfred I, also known as Alfred the Great. Every line on this map tells a story – each dot representing significant sites where battles were fought or defenses were erected. As we explore this image further, our eyes are drawn towards Danish forts scattered along the coastlines, reminding us of their relentless attempts at invasion. This photograph not only captures an important chapter in British history but also highlights how warfare has shaped nations throughout centuries. It stands as a reminder that even amidst chaos and conflict, great leaders like King Alfred can emerge with determination and courage. Credit: The Print Collector/Heritage Images
