EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a significant moment in Welsh cultural history - the proclamation of the Eisteddfod for 1887. The scene unfolds in the picturesque Gardens of the Inner Temple, London, as depicted by Sydney Prior Hall. Amidst lush greenery and blooming flowers, a group of Welsh Bards stands proudly on a stone platform. Dressed in traditional robes and adorned with symbolic regalia, they exude an air of wisdom and reverence. Led by the arch druid himself, they are accompanied by a skilled harpist who fills the air with melodious tunes. As rain gently falls from above, these poets chant their pennilion stanzas to proclaim this prestigious festival to the world. Their voices echo through London's streets, carrying not just music but also profound messages about truth and enlightenment. The presence of Mr Vaughan suggests that this event is attended by esteemed individuals who appreciate Welsh culture and its rich poetic tradition. The enchanting atmosphere created by this gathering evokes both awe and admiration. In this engraving, Hall skillfully captures not only the spirit of celebration but also highlights meteorology as an integral part of Welsh festivals like Eisteddfod. It serves as a reminder that even amidst unpredictable weather conditions, artistry thrives. This print serves as a testament to Wales' enduring love for poetry and its ability to transcend geographical boundaries while celebrating its unique heritage within foreign lands like London's Inner Temple gardens.
