EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia-toned print captures a significant moment in British history - the Treaty of Hengist and Horsa with Vortigen. Illustrated from Cassell's Illustrated History of England, this engraving depicts the legendary meeting between Hengist and Horsa, Germanic brothers who led the Angle, Saxon, and Jutish armies that conquered the first territories of Great Britain in the 5th century. Originally arriving in Britain as mercenaries serving Vortigern, King of the Britons, Hengist and Horsa played a pivotal role in shaping the destiny of this land. The image showcases these formidable warriors standing alongside their ruler during a truce negotiation. Their presence symbolizes power, strength, and unity. The Kingdom of Kent serves as an enchanting backdrop to this scene. With its rolling hills and lush greenery stretching into the distance, it evokes a sense of ancient mystique. This visual transports us back to a time when legends were born and kingdoms were forged through bloodshed and diplomacy. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Stapleton Collection, we are reminded not only of our rich historical heritage but also how myth intertwines with reality. It is through such artistic representations that we can delve deeper into our past while appreciating both fact and fiction.
