Information edit: Sakatsu Gallery
In the autumn of 1066, England was in the midst of a struggle for the throne.
Harold II, who had come to the throne earlier in the year, fought his brother for the throne at Stamford Bridge on 25 September and won, only to be killed half a month later at the Battle of Hastings on 14 October. Guillaume II, Duke of Normandy, won the battle and was crowned William I, thus beginning the Norman dynasty.
A scene from the epic historical drama has been recreated in a palm-sized artwork.
The moment when the enemy army fires a volley of arrows at him. The archer falls to the arrows that have pierced his shield. This is the first time I have ever seen such an image. The arrow also damages the horse, which also collapses on the spot.
The unbalanced pose and the arcs of the reins in the air give the work a photographic feel of having captured the very moment.
The presence of the enemy, who doesn't appear in the scene, evokes the vastness of the battlefield and the fear of what's to come.
