This image shows the capture of King John in Battle of Poitiers by R Catou Woodville. The Battle of Poitiers was fought on September 19, 1356 between England and France. The English won, one of their three major victories in the Hundred Years War. Leading the troops for France was King John and, for England, Edward the Black Prince. Circumstances led to King John's troops being left stranded and Edward was able to encircle him and capture both the king, as shown here, and his men. Richard Caton Woodville Jr. (died 1927) was an English artist and illustrator, who is best known for being one of the most prolific and effective painters of battle scenes in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

BATTLE OF DANTZIGDEATH OF PLEL0.The siege of Dantzig (1733) was the first struggle between widely separated France and Russia. Each country had a candidate for the throne of Poland, and Dantzig, then a Polish seaport, became the centre of their struggle. The French were hopelessly outnumbered, but their ambassador Plelo persisted, with blind gallantry, in fighting until he fell. The French then withdrew, and the little war terminated in Russia's favor.
