EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the essence of fleeting dreams and the ephemeral nature of life itself. The image depicts two figures, Irmingard and Walter, lost in an ethereal moment that seems to transcend time. Their faces are filled with longing and melancholy, as if they are aware that this beautiful dream will soon fade away. The artist, Sidney Meteyard, skillfully conveys the fragility of dreams through his masterful use of light and shadow. The soft glow enveloping Irmingard's face highlights her innocence and vulnerability while contrasting with the darkness surrounding them. This juxtaposition symbolizes the transitory nature of dreams - how they can be both enchanting yet elusive. Meteyard's choice to depict this scene from "The Golden Legend" written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, adds another layer of depth to the image. It hints at themes of temptation, faith, and redemption as it explores the story of Elsie who is tempted by Satan disguised as Prince Henry. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, we cannot help but reflect on our own transient existence. Like Irmingard and Walter's dream, our lives too are fleeting moments in time. We are reminded to cherish every precious second before it fades away into memory.
