EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this mesmerizing print, artist John Byam Liston Shaw transports us to a mystical realm where folklore intertwines with breathtaking landscapes. "The Kelpie and the Highlander" captures a moment of ethereal beauty, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in its enchantment. Set against a backdrop of flowing streams, wild trees, and lush vegetation, we witness an extraordinary encounter between two worlds. On one side stands a solitary Highlander, his tartan-clad figure blending seamlessly into the rugged landscape. His gaze is filled with curiosity as he encounters an otherworldly creature emerging from the depths of the riverbank. A captivating mermaid-like nymph known as a Kelpie gracefully emerges from the water's edge. Her alluring presence is accentuated by her flowing hair and delicate features that mirror both human and aquatic qualities. The pre-Raphaelite influence shines through in every brushstroke, capturing her mysterious allure. As sunlight filters through dense woodland, casting dappled shadows on rocks and pools nearby, we are transported into a world where myth meets reality. This evocative scene embodies both loneliness and wonder simultaneously - reminding us of nature's power to captivate our senses. Shaw's masterful use of chalk & bodycolour on paper brings this fantastical tale to life with remarkable detail. This timeless artwork invites us to explore our own imagination while immersing ourselves in Scotland's rich cultural
