EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the historic vessel, LA Mora, also known as the Williams Ship, which played a pivotal role in English history during the year 1066. This remarkable watercraft, capable of both sailing and rowing, was the means by which William the Conqueror and his Norman army crossed the English Channel to invade England and claim the throne. William, Duke of Normandy, had long coveted the English crown, and in 1066, he saw his opportunity. With a formidable fleet of ships, including the LA Mora, he set sail from his stronghold in Normandy, determined to assert his claim. The vessel, a masterpiece of naval engineering for its time, allowed the Normans to navigate the treacherous waters of the English Channel, braving storms and rough seas. Upon reaching the English shores, William's forces were able to land and begin their campaign. The Battle of Hastings, fought on October 14, 1066, resulted in a decisive Norman victory. King Harold Godwinson, the English monarch, was killed, and William was crowned King of England. The LA Mora, a symbol of William's determination and naval prowess, played a crucial role in the events that shaped English history. Its ability to be sailed or rowed made it an invaluable asset, enabling the Normans to traverse the Channel and bring about a significant shift in the political landscape of Europe. This print serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of this historic vessel and the pivotal role it played in the annals of history.
