EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a preliminary sketch for "The Wife of Bath" by artist Hugh Thomson, dating back to 1917. The artwork is an illustration from Geoffrey Chaucer's famous literary work, "The Canterbury Tales" specifically the tale told by the Wife of Bath. Set against an outdoor backdrop, this monochrome image depicts a woman on horseback with her trusty steed. The female rider exudes confidence as she dons a stylish hat and elegant dress, embodying the spirit of independence and empowerment. Thomson's attention to detail is evident in this early rendition, capturing both the gracefulness of the lady and the strength of her equine companion. The sketch highlights their harmonious connection through intricate linework and shading techniques. As one person dominates the scene, it becomes clear that this portrayal represents a fictional character rather than an actual individual. Nevertheless, Thomson skillfully brings her to life with his artistic prowess. Published in Studio Volume 70 in London during 1917, this print serves as a testament to both Chaucer's enduring literature and Thomson's contribution to visual storytelling. It offers viewers a glimpse into early 20th-century artistry while celebrating themes of femininity, literature, and equestrianism. Preserved by Heritage Images' Print Collector29 collection today, this historical piece continues to captivate audiences with its timeless charm and artistic brilliance.
