"The Battle of Wakefield 1460 - Rally To The Standard" by James Hugh Lendon Beattie

 

Front line melee around the Standard of Richard Duke of York, Wars of the Roses!

 

The Battle of Wakefield took place in 1460 during the Wars of the Roses. The larger Lancastrian force destroyed York's army in the resulting Battle of Wakefield. Richard of York was killed in the battle. The precise nature of his end was variously reported; he was either unhorsed, wounded and overcome fighting to the death or captured, given a mocking crown of bulrushes and then beheaded!!

 

Within a few weeks of Richard of York's death, his eldest surviving son was acclaimed King Edward IV and finally established the House of York on the throne following a decisive victory over the Lancastrians at the Battle of Towton. After an occasionally tumultuous reign, he died in 1483 and was succeeded by his twelve-year-old son, Edward V, who was himself succeeded after 86 days by his uncle, York's youngest son, Richard III.
