EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Unshriven: Empty saddle on his back" we are transported to a world of poetic melancholy and untold stories. The image, taken from the 1912 publication of Adam Lindsay Gordon's Poems, captures the essence of loss and solitude. The focal point is an empty saddle resting upon a saddled horse, devoid of its rider. The absence of a human figure evokes a sense of mystery and longing. It is as if the rider has vanished into thin air, leaving behind only their imprint on the animal's back. The monochrome engraving adds depth and texture to the scene, enhancing its emotional impact. Every line etched onto the paper seems to whisper tales untold, inviting us to delve into Gordon's poetry for answers. Gordon himself was known for his poignant verses about horses and their connection with humanity. This print serves as a visual representation of his words - an ode to these majestic creatures that have long been companions in our journeys through life. As we gaze at this artwork, we cannot help but ponder upon themes such as mortality, isolation, and unfulfilled desires. It reminds us that even in our absence or departure from this world, traces remain behind - be it an empty saddle or memories etched deep within those who loved us. This timeless piece by Giles Douglas invites viewers to reflect on life's fleeting moments while immersing themselves in the beauty of artistry intertwined with literature.
