EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Statue of William of Orange, erected in Sandy Row to commemorate the historic Battle of the Boyne. The battle, which took place in 1690, marked a pivotal moment in James II's ill-fated quest to reclaim the English crown during the 17th century. The statue itself stands tall and proud, capturing an equestrian figure of William III, also known as Prince William of Orange. Mounted on his noble steed, he exudes strength and determination as he holds aloft a flag bearing the Union Jack. Surrounding him are several men and horses, symbolizing the intensity and chaos of war. The vibrant colors captured in this image bring life to history; from the vivid reds and blues adorning flags to the rich hues that adorn both man and beast. It serves as a powerful reminder not only of past conflicts but also pays homage to those who fought valiantly for their beliefs. Located in Belfast, Northern Ireland, this statue is more than just a monument; it represents resilience and national pride. As we gaze upon it today, we are transported back through time - witnessing firsthand a significant event that shaped nations. Photographer CM Dixon has masterfully captured this commemorative artwork with great attention to detail. Through his lens, we can appreciate both its artistic beauty and historical significance without any commercial intent or association with any company mentioned.
