EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration from Eleanor Hull's "Cuchulain, The Hound of Ulster" we witness a momentous meeting between Queen Maeve and Cuchulain. The vibrant colors of the lithograph bring to life the rich tapestry of Irish mythology and folklore. Queen Maeve, regal and commanding, stands before Cuchulain with an air of authority. Her presence exudes power as she engages in conversation with the young hero. Cuchulain, depicted as a strong and determined figure, listens intently to her words, his youthful curiosity shining through. The scene is set against a backdrop that hints at an impending conflict - the enemy forces are gathering on one side while Ulster awaits its fate on the other. This encounter between two formidable characters foreshadows the clash that lies ahead. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported into a world where legends come alive. We can almost feel the tension in the air as these iconic figures meet face-to-face. It is a reminder of Ireland's rich mythological heritage and how it continues to captivate our imagination even today. This artwork by Stephen Reid beautifully captures both the strength and vulnerability present in these mythical characters. It serves as a testament to their enduring legacy within Irish culture and reminds us of our own connection to ancient tales passed down through generations.
