EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Marmion's Defiance to Douglas" transports us back in time to the Battle of Flodden Field. Created by John Gilbert and published in The Illustrated London News in 1882, this print captures a pivotal moment from Sir Walter Scott's epic poem, Marmion. The scene is filled with tension and drama as Lord Marmion, clad in magnificent plate armor, defiantly faces off against his adversary, Douglas. Both men are mounted on powerful steeds that exude strength and determination. The clash between these two formidable warriors symbolizes the intense struggle for power and honor during this historic battle. Surrounding them are soldiers from the League of Cumbria, their armoured clothing gleaming under the sun. Traditional armoury is displayed throughout the scene; mesh sizes vary as each soldier dons their protective gear. From conscripts to seasoned troops, armed forces unite under one cause - combatting enemy forces. What makes this engraving particularly striking is the inclusion of female soldiers amidst a sea of male counterparts. This unexpected presence challenges traditional gender roles within military settings and highlights women's contributions to warfare throughout history. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of the bravery and sacrifice exhibited by those who fought on both sides of Flodden Field. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of literature and art in capturing significant historical moments while also provoking contemplation about war's impact on society
