This print captures a pivotal moment in history as Henry V, the renowned monarch of England, marches out against the Lollards. The scene is set in St Giless Fields, where an armed assembly of malcontent Lollards has gathered to challenge the authority of the king. With determination etched on his face and clad in formidable armor, Henry V leads his soldiers into battle against this rebellious faction. The image showcases the grandeur of medieval England with its towering city walls and majestic gates serving as a backdrop to this historic event. As night falls upon the city, torches illuminate the scene, casting an ethereal glow on both ruler and knight alike. Although many Lollards were killed or captured during this confrontation, their ringleader Sir John Oldcastle managed to escape capture. This encounter serves as a testament to Henry V's unwavering commitment to maintaining order within his kingdom. Through this vivid depiction by James William Edmund Doyle, viewers are transported back in time to witness a significant episode from British history. The print not only highlights the power dynamics between rulers and dissenters but also offers a glimpse into life during the Middle Ages. This remarkable artwork from A Chronicle of England BC 55 to AD 1485 invites us to reflect upon our past while appreciating how far we have come as a society.
