EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of artistry from the 19th century - PB 5-2001, featuring pages 22-23 of "The Knights Tale" by Geoffrey Chaucer. Published by the renowned Kelmscott Press and adorned with illustrations by Sir Edward Burne-Jones, this book is a true masterpiece in both literature and design. The print captures the essence of the Arts and Crafts movement, with its intricate woodcuts and black type on paper. Standing at an impressive height of 42.4 cm and width of 29 cm, it commands attention with its sheer beauty. Sir Edward Burne-Jones's illustrations transport us to a medieval world filled with chivalry and romance. The foliate border surrounding the text adds an enchanting touch, while his historiated initials bring life to each page. William Morris's influence shines through in every detail - from the meticulous craftsmanship to the elegant typography. This collaboration between two giants of Victorian art perfectly encapsulates their shared passion for reviving medieval aesthetics. Andrew Morris skillfully captures all these elements in his photograph, allowing us to appreciate this extraordinary work even if we cannot hold it in our hands. It serves as a reminder that great art transcends time, continuing to inspire generations long after its creation. This print is not just a mere depiction; it is an invitation into a world where poetry intertwines with visual splendor - where literature becomes tangible beauty.
