EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - The Battle of Crecy on 26 August 1346. Painted by an anonymous artist from the Netherlands around 1470, this exquisite watercolour on parchment is a masterpiece of early Netherlandish art. Preserved in the collection of Bibliotheque Nationale de France, it offers us a glimpse into the tumultuous Hundred Years War. The scene depicted here is filled with intensity and drama. Soldiers clad in armor engage in fierce combat, their weapons clashing amidst billowing clouds of dust and smoke. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable, as every figure seems to come alive with expressions of determination or fear etched upon their faces. The Battle of Crecy was a turning point in medieval warfare, showcasing the power and effectiveness of English longbowmen against French knights. This miniature painting serves as both historical documentation and artistic expression, capturing the chaos and heroism that unfolded on that fateful day.
