EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable moment from the medieval legend of King Arthur. Titled "Galahad comes to Arthur" this vellum manuscript, created by the French School in the 13th century, showcases an exquisite scene that has stood the test of time. In this enchanting image, we witness Galahad's arrival at King Arthur's court. Clad in shining armor and mounted on a majestic horse, Galahad exudes an air of nobility and heroism. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation as all eyes turn towards him. The round table, symbolizing equality among knights, takes center stage in this composition. Surrounding it are other legendary figures such as Guinevere and Sir Lancelot. Their presence adds depth to the narrative and hints at the complex relationships within Arthurian lore. The attention to detail exhibited by the anonymous artist is truly astounding; every stroke on vellum breathes life into these mythical characters. The horses depicted here possess an undeniable grace and strength, further enhancing their role as vital companions to these valiant knights. This print not only serves as a visual feast for art enthusiasts but also offers a glimpse into medieval history and literature. It reminds us of timeless tales that continue to captivate our imaginations today. With its rich symbolism and masterful execution, this artwork remains an enduring testament to human creativity throughout centuries past.
