EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph titled "She caused the rock to shut down" by Dora Curtis transports us into the realm of Arthurian legends and mythology. This mesmerizing print, part of a private collection, is an illustration for Beatrice Clay's "Stories of King Arthur and the Round Table" published in 1905. In this scene, we witness a pivotal moment as Morgan Le Fay, a powerful enchantress from Arthurian lore, exerts her magical prowess. The artist skillfully captures the intensity and mystique surrounding Morgan as she commands a massive rock formation to close off an entrance or pathway. The sheer force emanating from her presence is palpable through Curtis' intricate engraving technique. The image evokes curiosity about the story behind this mythical event. What led Morgan Le Fay to take such drastic action? How will it impact King Arthur and his knights? These questions beckon us to delve deeper into the rich tapestry of Arthurian tales. With its ethereal beauty and timeless allure, this lithograph serves as both a visual feast for art enthusiasts and an invitation into the fantastical world of legend. It reminds us that stories passed down through generations continue to captivate our imaginations today. Bridgeman Images has once again brought forth an extraordinary piece that not only preserves history but also sparks our imagination with its enduring power.
