EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Armorel of Lyonesse, A Romance of To-Day" transports us back to the enchanting world of literary illustrations from the late 19th century. Created by Frederick Barnard after a novel by Walter Besant, this print captures a moment that is both curious and intriguing. In the center of the image stands Armorel, our protagonist. With her head slightly tilted and eyes fixated on something beyond our view, she exudes an air of mystery. Her youthful face reveals innocence yet harbors wisdom beyond her years. Dressed in flowing garments that drape over her shoulder, she embodies grace and elegance. Surrounded by artists' tools and books scattered around her feet, Armorel represents not only a character but also symbolizes growth and creativity. As we observe this scene frozen in time, we can't help but wonder what lies within the pages of the book she holds so delicately. The composition draws us into Armorel's world as if we were watching through a keyhole or peering over someone's shoulder. It invites us to become partakers in her journey—a romance unfolding before our very eyes. This exquisite engraving serves as a reminder of how art has always been intertwined with literature—bringing stories to life through visual interpretation. It evokes nostalgia for an era when imagination was sparked by beautifully crafted illustrations like these—an invitation to explore worlds unknown.
