EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print depicts a pivotal moment in Scottish history: the Battle of Nevilles Cross, fought on October 17, 1346, near Newcastle upon Tyne. The scene shows King David II of Scotland (r. 1329-1371) in the heat of battle against his formidable English opponent, Philippa of Hainault, who led the English forces in her husband, King Edward III's (r. 1327-1377) absence. David's reign was marked by a series of military conflicts with England, and this battle was a significant defeat for the Scots. The English forces, bolstered by the powerful Lancaster and Percy families, managed to outmaneuver the Scots, leading to David's capture. He was imprisoned in the Tower of London for the next 11 years. In the print, King David is shown in full armor, his face a mask of determination, as he charges into the fray. His Scottish soldiers, clad in chainmail and wielding various weapons, follow closely behind. Across the battlefield, Philippa of Hainault, dressed in a flowing gown and wearing a helmet, rallies her English troops. The backdrop of Newcastle upon Tyne's imposing castle adds to the sense of drama and historical significance. This print offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of chivalry, honor, and the ever-present struggle for power between Scotland and England. The Battle of Nevilles Cross was a turning point in the Anglo-Scottish Wars, and this image serves as a poignant reminder of the rich and complex history that unfolded on the banks of the River Tyne over 675 years ago.
