Outnumbered almost two to one, King Henry’s English Army defeated a much larger French Army in the Battle at Agincourt in 1415. Victorious, but not without heavy casualties, King Henry’s army returns home to bury its fallen heroes, but also to celebrate a most unlikely victory. This work depicts the solemn procession of perished soldiers as they return to their English homeland, followed closely by the triumphant and heroic knights.
