EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Lancelot comes out of Gueneveres Room" artist Henry Justice Ford transports us into the heart of Arthurian legend. Taken from his illustrations for "Tales of the Round Table" published in 1910, this print captures a pivotal moment in the timeless tale. The image depicts Sir Lancelot, known as the Knight of the Cart and one of King Arthur's most loyal knights, emerging from Gueneveres Room. Bathed in soft light, Lancelot's expression is filled with both guilt and longing as he gazes back at the closed door behind him. The room itself exudes an air of secrecy and forbidden love, hinting at the illicit affair between Lancelot and Queen Guinevere. Ford's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, creating a sense of depth and emotion that draws viewers into this legendary world. The composition skillfully balances light and shadow, enhancing the dramatic tension within the scene. This engraving serves as a reminder of the complex relationships that define Arthurian romance - honor versus desire, loyalty versus passion. It encapsulates not only Lancelot's internal struggle but also highlights themes such as chivalry, betrayal, and sacrifice that have made these legends endure through centuries. As we gaze upon this digitally cleaned image courtesy of Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported to Camelot itself - a place where mythic heroes grapple with their own humanity against a backdrop woven with
