EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration titled "Cuchulain follows the Shining Wheel" we are transported into the world of Irish mythology and legend. Created by Eleanor Hull in 1904, this colour lithograph brings to life a pivotal moment from her book "Cuchulain, The Hound of Ulster". The image depicts Cuchulain, a heroic figure from Irish folklore, as he embarks on a perilous journey to the enigmatic Perilous Glen. To aid him in his quest, he is bestowed with a mystical shining wheel that illuminates his path through darkness and uncertainty. Stephen Reid's masterful execution of this scene captures the essence of Cuchulain's character - brave, determined, and destined for greatness. As he follows the radiant glow emanating from the wheel, we can almost feel his unwavering resolve and anticipation for what lies ahead. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph further enhance its magical quality. The fiery reds and oranges symbolize both danger and strength while contrasting against cool blues that represent tranquility amidst chaos. This artwork not only showcases Hull's talent as an illustrator but also pays homage to Ireland's rich mythological heritage. It serves as a visual reminder of how ancient legends continue to captivate our imaginations even today. As we gaze upon "Cuchulain follows the Shining Wheel" we are reminded that sometimes it is through embracing destiny and following our own inner light that we find ourselves on extraordinary journeys filled with adventure
