EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Red Cross Knight" from the first edition of Faerie Queen by Edmund Spenser, dating back to 1590. The intricate engraving, created by an anonymous English School artist from the 16th century, is now housed in a private collection. In this mesmerizing scene, we witness the Red Cross Knight adorned in magnificent armor and helmet as he fearlessly confronts a menacing dragon. With plumes flowing from his helmet and mounted on his noble steed, he exudes both strength and chivalry. The knight's determination is palpable as he prepares to slay the monstrous creature with his trusty sword. The image transports us into a world of fantasy and adventure where traditional armoured clothing meets fantastical creatures. It captures the essence of bravery and heroism that resonates throughout Spenser's epic poem. This artwork not only celebrates the rich history of literature but also pays homage to the enduring power of fictional characters. Through this engraving, we are reminded of our fascination with wonderful beings that exist solely within our imagination. Ken Welsh's expert capture allows us to appreciate every minute detail - from the mesh size of the knight's armor to each individual plume adorning his helmet. This print serves as a visual testament to both artistic skill and storytelling prowess while inviting viewers into a realm where battles between good and evil unfold before their eyes.
