EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the sixth century AD, representing none other than King Arthur himself. Clad in a characteristic costume of a British chieftain, this image brings to life the legendary monarch from the pages of literature. The photograph is an illustration from Herbert Norris' renowned book "Costume & Fashion - The Evolution of European Dress Through the Earlier Ages", published in 1924 by J. M. Dent and Sons Ltd. King Arthur stands tall and proud, his hand resting confidently on his hip as he gazes into the distance. His majestic presence is enhanced by the regal tunic he wears, adorned with intricate patterns that speak of ancient traditions. A helmet rests upon his head, symbolizing both protection and authority. The photo captures not only King Arthur's attire but also hints at a world filled with warfare and conflict. In one hand, he holds a spear – a weapon that signifies strength and power on the battlefield. As we admire this historic portrait outdoors against an unknown backdrop, we are transported to an era long gone by. This image serves as a reminder of Britain's rich heritage and its enduring fascination with legends such as King Arthur. It allows us to delve into history through artistry while appreciating how fashion has evolved over centuries on our beloved continent of Europe.
