EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the imposing figure of William the Conqueror, depicted in regal attire, standing proudly atop a cliff overlooking the French coast at Falaise. Erected in 1851, the statue commemorates the Norman Duke who, born in 1028 in Falaise Castle, would go on to become one of the most significant historical figures in both British and French history. William, who was the Duke of Normandy before he set his sights on invading England in 1066, is depicted with a determined expression, as if gazing out to the English Channel, the body of water that would carry his forces across to launch the successful invasion that would ultimately result in his becoming the first Norman King of England. The statue, which stands tall against the rugged cliffs and crashing waves, serves as a testament to William's military prowess and his enduring impact on European history. The year 1851 marks the anniversary of the statue's erection, a symbolic nod to the historical significance of the site and the enduring legacy of the man himself. Born in 1028, William's life began in the castle at Falaise, where he grew up as the illegitimate son of Duke Robert I of Normandy. Despite his humble beginnings, William would go on to build a formidable military and political powerbase in Normandy, eventually setting his sights on the English throne. His successful invasion in 1066 marked the beginning of the Norman Conquest of England, a period of significant cultural, social, and political change that would last for centuries. Today, the statue at Falaise stands as a reminder of William's indelible mark on European history, and a testament to the enduring power of determination and ambition.
