EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite miniature, created by the renowned French illuminator, A. Verard, in 1490, depicts King Arthur and his knights gathered at the legendary Round Table in Camelot. The Round Table, a symbol of unity and equality among Arthur's knights, is depicted here with a central, empty seat reserved for the yet-to-arrive Lancelot du Lac. King Arthur, dressed regally in his royal robes, presides over the scene with an authoritative yet benevolent expression. The knights, dressed in their distinctive armor, are seated around the table, each one ready to embark on the next great adventure. This miniature is an illustration from an incunable, or early printed book, of the French prose version of the Lancelot-Grail cycle. The Lancelot-Grail cycle is a collection of Arthurian legends that tells the stories of the hero Lancelot and his quest for the Holy Grail. This particular incunable, now housed in the National Library in Paris, France, is a testament to the enduring appeal of the Arthurian legend in medieval Europe. The Arthurian legend, with its themes of chivalry, honor, and the quest for the divine, continues to captivate the imagination of people around the world. This miniature, with its intricate details and vibrant colors, offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of medieval Europe and the United Kingdom, and serves as a reminder of the enduring power of storytelling.
