EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage illustration from the story Orlando Furioso, we are transported to a world of enchantment and wonder. The legendary figure of Merlin, known for his mastery of magic and sorcery, is depicted here engrossed in his studies. With an air of wisdom and intrigue, he sits amidst a collection of ancient books on magic, delving into their secrets with intense focus. The artwork beautifully captures the essence of Ludovico Ariosto's Italian epic poem, which tells the tale of Orlando Furioso - a chivalric romance that originated during the late Middle Ages. Gustave Dore's intricate illustrations bring to life the rich tapestry of characters and events within this timeless narrative. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost feel ourselves being drawn into Merlin's world - a realm where knights embark on heroic quests and mythical creatures roam freely. It serves as a reminder that literature has always been a gateway to fantastical realms beyond our own reality. This particular image by duncan1890 showcases not only the artist's talent but also their appreciation for historical storytelling. It serves as both an homage to classic literature and an invitation for us to explore these tales ourselves. Whether displayed in a library or adorning the walls of any art enthusiast's home, this print transports viewers back in time while igniting their imagination with its vivid depiction of Merlin immersed in his magical pursuits.
