EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of the "Capture of Calais by the French Under the Duke of Guise" in 1558. The image, created in 1890 by an unknown artist, showcases a scene from the Siege of Calais during the Italian Wars. In this powerful engraving, we witness the advancing French troops under Francis, Duke of Guise, as they arrive at English-held Calais. The broken fortifications and debris scattered around depict a fierce battle that took place between Henry II's forces and Thomas Wentworth's defenders. The photograph is taken from Edmund Ollier's renowned book "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" providing us with a glimpse into this significant event in European history. With its detailed depiction of the exterior landscape and fortification ruins, it transports us back to a time when countries fought for power and dominance. The image not only serves as a historical record but also highlights artistic elements through its use of black and white tones.
