EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving by Gustave Dore, titled "Geraint charges the Bandits" we are transported into the heart of an Arthurian legend. The scene is filled with action and intensity as Geraint fearlessly confronts a group of menacing bandits. With his sword raised high and determination etched on his face, he embodies the bravery and chivalry that define the legendary knights of King Arthur's court. This print is part of The Dore Gift Book of Illustrations to Tennyson's Idylls of the King, a collection that beautifully brings Alfred Lord Tennyson's epic poem to life. Through Dore's masterful artistry, we can almost hear the clash of swords and feel the adrenaline coursing through our veins. The image captures not only Geraint's heroic charge but also hints at deeper themes found within Tennyson's work - honor, loyalty, and sacrifice in pursuit of justice. It serves as a visual reminder that legends like these have endured throughout history because they speak to universal human experiences. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded once again why Arthurian legends continue to captivate our imaginations. They transport us to a mythical world where heroes fight against all odds for what they believe in - inspiring us to find courage within ourselves when faced with our own battles.
