EDITORS COMMENTS
Neville's Cross, 1346: The Triumph of Philippa of Hainault over King David of Scotland This evocative image from the annals of medieval history depicts the momentous battle of Neville's Cross, fought on October 17, 1346, near Newcastle upon Tyne, England. The scene captures the decisive moment when Queen Philippa of Hainault, consort of King Edward III of England, leads her troops against the Scottish forces under the command of King David II. The battle of Neville's Cross was a pivotal event in the Anglo-Scottish Wars, which had been raging since the early 13th century. King David II had invaded England with a large Scottish army, intending to take advantage of the English preoccupation with the ongoing Hundred Years War against France. However, the Scottish forces were caught off guard by the unexpected arrival of the English army, led by the experienced military commander, the Earl of Northumberland. In the foreground of the image, Queen Philippa, resplendent in her richly embroidered gown and crowned with a diadem, rides boldly towards the enemy, her determined expression and outstretched hand signaling her command. The Scottish King David, dressed in full armor, is shown being taken prisoner by an English knight, symbolizing the English victory. The background of the print is filled with the chaos of battle, with soldiers clashing in melee, banners flying high, and the smoke of battle rising in the air. The River Tyne, which played a crucial role in the battle, is visible in the distance, adding to the sense of grandeur and scale. This powerful image serves as a testament to the courage and leadership of Queen Philippa of Hainault, who played a significant role in the English victory at Neville's Cross. Her triumph over King David II marked a turning point in the Anglo-Scottish Wars and secured England's control over the northern border for several decades.
