EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical moment captured on vellum by the talented Master of Mary of Burgundy, fl. 1469-83. Titled "Ms 659 f. 204 r. The French Army Defeats the Flemish at Cassel in 1328,1477" this artwork depicts a significant event during France's reign under Philip IV (1328-50). The image portrays the crushing defeat of a revolt by the Flemish cloth towns, highlighting an important chapter in history. The Hundred Years War (1337-1453) between France and England serves as the backdrop for this intense battle scene illuminated with grisaille technique.

The artist's attention to detail is evident through meticulously crafted illustrations that bring life to every soldier and horse depicted on the battlefield. This piece not only captures the essence of warfare but also provides valuable insight into military tactics employed during that era.
