EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment from the enchanting tale of Tristram and Iseult. Illustrated by Beatrice Clay in her renowned book, "Stories of King Arthur and the Round Table" this first edition lithograph transports us to the court of King Anguish of Ireland. In this scene, we witness Sir Tristram, a valiant Knight of the Round Table, fulfilling his duty to bring back Princess Iseult for King Mark. However, fate intervenes when the couple accidentally consumes a powerful love potion. As their eyes meet amidst the grandeur of King Anguish's castle, an undeniable bond is forged between them. The artist skillfully depicts this fateful encounter with intricate details. The majestic ship in the background symbolizes Tristram's arrival on Irish shores while also alluding to future adventures that await him and Iseult. A graceful swan glides across calm waters beneath them, representing purity and love amidst turbulent circumstances. This illustration beautifully captures both the mythical elements and emotional depth present in Arthurian legends. It serves as a visual testament to Dora Curtis' talent as she brings these timeless characters to life through her masterful engraving technique. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print from our private collection, we are transported into a world where honor clashes with desire and destiny intertwines with forbidden love.
