EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment from the tragic tale of Macbeth. In this scene, we witness the intense confrontation between Macbeth and Lady Macduff as her husband makes his daring escape by sea. The image showcases a magnificent castle with its imposing drawbridge, symbolizing power and protection. Lady Macduff stands resolute on the drawbridge, refusing entrance to the treacherous Macbeth. Her unwavering determination is evident in her posture and expression, representing loyalty to her family and defiance against evil forces. Meanwhile, in the background, soldiers loom ominously, adding tension to an already charged atmosphere. The artist's attention to detail transports us back in time to Scotland's rich history. The Scottish landscape serves as a breathtaking backdrop for this dramatic event unfolding within the castle walls. Skelton skillfully captures both the grandeur of castles and their role as dwellings that witnessed countless stories throughout centuries. This evocative illustration originates from "Stories of Scotland in Days of Old" published around 1910 by Jack & Co. , immersing readers into tales deeply rooted in Scottish folklore. With its gripping narrative and powerful imagery, this artwork reminds us of our fascination with historical legends that continue to captivate our imagination today.
