EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Percival Obtains the Shield of the Beating Heart" transports us back to the enchanting world of Arthurian legends. Created by Walter Crane in 1911, this first edition lithograph beautifully captures a pivotal moment from Henry Gilbert's "Stories of the Knights of the Round Table". The image depicts Sir Percival, one of King Arthur's noble knights, as he embarks on a quest to obtain the legendary Shield of the Beating Heart. The shield is said to possess magical powers and can only be obtained by a knight who embodies true chivalry. In this scene, we witness Percival riding through a lush countryside towards an imposing palace. His loyal hounds accompany him on his journey, symbolizing loyalty and bravery. As he approaches his destination, Percival passes by sleeping knights and encounters King Marius in a mythic chapel. Crane's attention to detail brings life to this medieval tale; every element within the frame tells its own story. From majestic horses grazing peacefully in nearby fields to farm animals dotting the landscape, each contributes to creating an immersive experience for viewers. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us not only to appreciate Crane's artistic talent but also invites us into an extraordinary world where honor and courage reign supreme. It serves as a testament that even after more than a century since its creation, art continues to transport us beyond time and space into realms filled with magic and adventure.
