EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The Abbot of Saint Maries taken by Robin Hood" transports us back to the enchanting world of folklore and adventure. Captured around 1920, this colour lithograph by Walter Crane showcases a scene from the renowned tale of Robin Hood and his band of outlaws. In this vivid depiction, we find ourselves amidst an ambush in the heart of Sherwood Forest. The costumes worn by these legendary characters evoke a sense of medieval mystique, with their flowing garments and intricate details. Bound together, weapons at their sides, they stand as symbols of resistance against tyranny. At the center of attention is the captured abbot himself – a prisoner caught in Robin Hood's web. His expression reveals both fear and curiosity as he encounters these infamous English rebels. Behind him looms Nottingham Castle, serving as a reminder that even those in power are not exempt from justice's reach. The image also highlights one iconic element associated with Robin Hood: his trusty longbow. A symbol synonymous with skill and precision, it further emphasizes our hero's prowess as an archer extraordinaire. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported into a world where legends come alive – where honourable thieves challenge authority for the sake of justice and equality. It serves as a timeless reminder that tales like these continue to captivate our imaginations across generations.
