EDITORS COMMENTS
In this woodcut illustration by William Blake, titled "Thenot Remonstrates with Colinet" we are transported to a serene landscape at the break of dawn. The scene depicts two figures engaged in an intense conversation, their gestures and expressions suggesting a passionate argument or pleading. The artist skillfully captures the essence of the moment, using intricate lines and contrasting shades to bring depth and emotion to the print. The soft hues of morning light bathe the surroundings, creating a tranquil atmosphere that contrasts with the tension between Thenot and Colinet. As we observe this scene, it becomes clear that there is more than meets the eye. Perhaps Thenot is trying to convince Colinet of something important or attempting to change his mind about a decision. Their body language suggests urgency and determination as they engage in this heated exchange. This woodcut illustration originates from Dr. Thornton's edition of "The Pastorals of Virgil". It serves as both an artistic interpretation and visual representation of a pivotal moment within Virgil's poem. Through Blake's masterful craftsmanship, he invites us into this timeless narrative where emotions run high and words hold immense power. Overall, this print offers viewers a glimpse into an intriguing story filled with passion, persuasion, and poetic beauty—a testament to William Blake's exceptional talent as an artist storyteller.
