EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable sketch of Robin Hood, created in 1852 by the talented artist Richard Dadd. The sketch, rendered with watercolor over graphite on paper, measures 34.6x24.8 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection in the USA. The image transports us to Sherwood Forest, where Robin Hood stands tall and proud, embodying the essence of an English outlaw. With his trusty longbow firmly grasped and an arrow ready to be released into the air, he epitomizes strength and skill as he takes aim at his target. This legendary figure from folklore has captivated audiences for centuries with tales of his bravery and cunning nature. Known as a folk hero, Robin Hood represents rebellion against injustice and oppression while championing the cause of the common people. The intricate details captured within this sketch bring life to this iconic character—his rugged appearance blending seamlessly with the surrounding woodland scenery. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand Robin Hood's daring escapades that have become etched into our collective imagination. With its historical significance and artistic brilliance, this depiction serves as a testament to both Dadd's talent as an artist and Robin Hood's enduring legacy as one of England's most beloved figures.
