Champs d'honneur #2

Part of Delcourt's Champs d'honneur series, this 2016 entry plunges readers into the chaos of Castillon, juillet 1453 — the cover painting by Parma depicting a surging mass of armored knights, a central figure in a red-and-gold heraldic surcoat raising his sword amid the crush of battle. Gloris, Parma, and Fogolin bring a painter's eye and a historian's precision to one of the defining engagements of the Hundred Years' War, the sheer density of steel, banners, and clashing bodies on the cover promising nothing less than total immersion in medieval warfare.
