À la mort sans enfant du roi d'Angleterre Édouard le Confesseur, une crise de succession éclate et, après sa victoire à la bataille d'Hastings (1066), il s'empare de la couronne d'Angleterre. Cette conquête fait de lui l'un des plus puissants monarques de l'Europe occidentale et conduit à de très profonds changements dans la société anglaise, dont l'élite anglo-saxonne disparaît au profit des Normands.
Dès lors, il passe la suite de son règne à se défendre face à ses nombreux ennemis, que ce soit en Angleterre (les rebelles anglo-saxons rassemblés derrière Edgar Atheling, les Danois et les Écossais) ou sur le continent (le comte d'Anjou Foulques le Réchin, le comte de Flandre Robert Ier, et surtout le roi de France Philippe Ier). Il meurt à Rouen en 1087, après la mise à sac de Mantes, au cours d'une campagne de représailles dans le Vexin français contre le roi Philippe Ier. Il est inhumé à l'abbaye aux Hommes de Caen.
Aurélien Comte, a passionate photographer, discovered his artistic vocation after exploring other fields. A graduate of the Swiss Nicephore School of Photography in January 2022, he has since devoted his talent to capturing the beauty of nature and the environment around him.
After obtaining his scientific baccalaureate, Aurélien pursued studies in geography at university before turning to an artistic career. He is particularly attracted by animal photography and the poetry that nature offers through its landscapes. His curiosity led him to carry out research in Normandy, his adopted region, as well as in Provence, with particular attention paid to the charming town of Sanary-sur-Mer, which he has known for more than 20 years. . This summer, he also explored Menton and Vence, in the Estérel region.
Aurélien is not limited to natural wonders, he is also interested in the urban environment, especially in Paris, where he likes to explore the urban landscape and architecture. His current project is to specialize in architectural photography, capturing the beauty and essence of man-made structures.
His style is inspired by modernity, although he does not hesitate to experiment with abstract photos from time to time. His artistic gaze is unique, capturing fleeting moments with aesthetic sensitivity and a search for beauty in detail.
Aurélien Comte is a booming artist. He will exhibit his works with seven other photographers in Paris under the direction of Jean-Christophe Bécher in September 2023, and will participate in the Arles meetings in August. His talent has also been recognized with the obtaining of seven labels during the Photocrowd permanent photo competition of the Principality of Monaco.
