EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Battle between the Mercians and Egbert" transports us back to a pivotal moment in English history. Created by the talented artist John Leech around 1860, this engraving vividly depicts the Battle of Ellandun or Battle of Wroughton that took place in September 825. Intriguingly humorous yet historically significant, this artwork captures the essence of warfare during the 9th century. The scene showcases a chaotic clash between two powerful forces: Egbert of Wessex and Beornwulf of Mercia. Men on horseback charge forward with swords raised high, while their loyal steeds gallop fiercely across the battlefield. Leech's artistic prowess shines through as he masterfully portrays both human and animal figures with meticulous detail. The monochrome palette adds depth to every stroke, enhancing the dramatic atmosphere surrounding this historic event. "The Comic History of England" by Gilbert A A Beckett served as inspiration for this remarkable piece. Through satire and caricature, it offers a unique perspective on British history that is both entertaining and educational. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded not only of our ancestors' struggles but also of their resilience in times of conflict. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring spirit throughout centuries marked by war and conquest.
