The illustration "Boadicea's Attack upon Camulodunum, 60 AD" by Henry A. (Harry) Payne is a vivid artistic representation of a significant historical event during the Roman occupation of Britain. Created by the English artist Henry A. Payne, who was known for his historical and allegorical works, this illustration captures the ferocity and determination of Boadicea (also known as Boudica), the queen of the Iceni tribe. Boadicea's revolt against Roman rule is one of the most famous uprisings in British history, and Payne's work brings this dramatic moment to life.

In 60 AD, Boadicea led a coalition of British tribes in a rebellion against the occupying Roman forces. The attack on Camulodunum (modern-day Colchester), which was then the Roman capital of Britain, marked the beginning of her campaign. The city was poorly defended, and the Roman inhabitants were taken by surprise. Boadicea's forces razed Camulodunum to the ground, destroying the Roman temple and slaughtering the inhabitants. This event was a significant blow to Roman authority in Britain and demonstrated the fierce resistance of the native tribes.

Payne's illustration is part of "The History of the Nation," a series that aimed to depict key moments in British history. His work is characterized by its attention to detail and dramatic composition, which effectively conveys the chaos and intensity of the battle. The illustration not only serves as a historical record but also as a piece of art that reflects the nationalistic sentiments of the time when it was created. Through his depiction of Boadicea's attack, Payne contributes to the enduring legacy of Boadicea as a symbol of resistance and national pride.
