EDITORS COMMENTS
The Norman flotilla, led by William, Duke of Normandy, embarks on its historic journey across the channel to Pevensey. This chromolithograph print captures the essence of this momentous event in 1856. Created by Charles Alfred Stothard and reproduced by William Mossman for the Society of Antiquaries, this artwork is a testament to the rich history depicted in Rev. John Collingwood Bruces' book 'The Bayeux Tapestry Elucidated'. The attention to detail and vibrant colors bring life to this scene from the 11th century. As the ships sail through the channel, one can almost feel their anticipation and determination. The flotilla symbolizes not only military might but also a pivotal turning point in English history.
