EDITORS COMMENTS
In this woodcut print from the 16th century, we witness a legendary scene of King Arthur fearlessly battling a formidable giant. What makes this artwork truly remarkable is the presence of the Virgin Mary, who stands as his protector and guide in this epic encounter. The artist skillfully captures the intensity of the moment, with King Arthur wielding his mighty sword against the towering giant. The details in their expressions reveal determination and courage amidst a backdrop of swirling clouds and dramatic lighting. Depicting an iconic figure from British folklore, King Arthur represents strength, chivalry, and honor. His connection to the Virgin Mary adds another layer of symbolism to this artwork - her divine protection signifies his righteousness and virtuous quest for justice. This woodcut print originates from "Chroniques de Bretagne" a renowned collection that chronicles historical events related to Brittany. Created in Paris in 1514, it showcases not only artistic excellence but also serves as an important historical document. As we gaze upon this image today, we are transported back in time to an era where legends were born. It reminds us of our fascination with tales passed down through generations – stories that continue to inspire us with their timeless themes of heroism and faith.
