EDITORS COMMENTS
An Incident on the Morning of Crecy. 26th August, A. D. 1346 (colour litho) captures a humorous and satirical moment amidst the chaos of battle. Created by Arthur Moreland in 1905, this comic illustration is part of the 'Humors of History' series. In this scene, we are transported back to the historic Battle of Crecy in France during the Hundred Years' War. The artist's wit shines through as he presents a comical twist to an otherwise serious event. Amidst cannon fire and clashes between English and German soldiers, a hilarious confrontation takes place. The cartoon-like characters depict English soldiers engaging with their German counterparts in a lighthearted manner that pokes fun at cultural differences. The exaggerated features and expressions add to the overall comedic effect. Moreland's satirical drawing offers viewers an amusing take on historical events while shedding light on societal attitudes towards different nations during that time period. This piece showcases his talent for blending humor with history, making it both visually entertaining and thought-provoking. Displayed against a vibrant backdrop, this print serves as a reminder that even in times of conflict, moments of levity can arise unexpectedly. It invites us to reflect on how humor has been used throughout history as a coping mechanism or means of commentary. This artwork from Bridgeman Images adds depth to any collection while providing an intriguing glimpse into medieval warfare through a humorous lens.
