EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to ancient Britain, showcasing a remarkable war chariot with scythed blades protruding from its wheels. The image, captured by an English School artist in the 19th century and published in the renowned book "Old England: A Pictorial Museum" in 1847, offers a glimpse into the ingenuity and ferocity of British warriors. The chariot stands as a testament to the resourcefulness of ancient Britons on the battlefield. Its wheels are adorned with deadly scythed blades that strike fear into the hearts of their enemies. These lethal additions serve not only as weapons but also as symbols of power and intimidation. Resting atop this formidable war machine are a shield and spears, ready for battle at any moment. The shield bears witness to countless clashes, displaying signs of wear and tear that tell tales of past victories and defeats. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artifact frozen in time, we cannot help but marvel at the craftsmanship involved in creating such a fearsome weapon. It serves as a reminder that warfare has always been an integral part of human history, driving innovation even during ancient times. Through this photo print, we are transported back centuries ago when honor was won through bravery on blood-soaked battlegrounds. It invites us to reflect on our own civilization's progress while paying homage to those who came before us - valiant warriors who fought fiercely for their beliefs and way of life.
