Created by the talented artist Valentine Walter Lewis Bromley, this print captures a dramatic scene filled with intrigue and forbidden romance. In this vivid illustration, we find ourselves amidst a group of guards who are sworn to protect their post at all costs.

The tension is palpable as these brave soldiers find themselves torn between loyalty and desire. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings every element of this composition to life. From the gleaming swords held firmly in each guard's hand, symbolizing authority and power, to the expressions on their faces revealing conflicting emotions - determination mixed with curiosity or perhaps even infatuation. This thought-provoking artwork reminds us of the timeless struggle between duty and personal desires that exists within human nature. It serves as a reminder that rules can sometimes be broken when faced with irresistible temptations or matters of the heart.
