Alfred the Great at the Battle of Ashdown, 871 (1913)
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white lithograph by Morris Meredith Williams takes us back to a defining moment in British history. Depicting King Alfred the Great leading his West Saxon army against invading Danes, it captures the intensity and valor of this legendary battle. On 8th January 871, amidst the rolling hills of Ashdown, England witnessed a clash between two formidable forces. With axe in hand and determination etched on his face, King Alfred emerges as a fearless leader guiding his brother's army towards victory. The monochrome palette adds an air of timelessness to this historic scene. Eleanor Means Hull's book "The Northmen in Britain" serves as the inspiration for this illustration, published in 1913. It showcases not only Williams' artistic prowess but also highlights how deeply rooted these tales are within British culture. Intricate details bring life to every figure present on that battlefield – soldiers fighting with unwavering loyalty under their sovereign's command. This image stands as a testament to both Alfred's military genius and his enduring legacy as one of England's greatest monarchs. As we gaze upon this print from Heritage Images' Historica Graphica Collection, we are transported back centuries ago when Wessex faced its most significant threat yet: Viking invaders from Denmark. Let us remember those who fought bravely for their country and honor their sacrifice through preserving our rich historical heritage.
