EDITORS COMMENTS
The Chief Druid, depicted in this stunning copper engraving from 1723, is a captivating glimpse into the world of ancient Celtic mythology and religion. Created by the talented artist Henry Rowlands, this print is part of his renowned work 'Mona Antiqua Restaurata, ' which explores the rich history and culture of Great Britain's druids. The image transports us to a time when druids held great power and wisdom within their enigmatic practices. The Chief Druid stands tall and commanding, adorned with intricate robes that symbolize his elevated status among his fellow Celts. His gaze is intense yet serene, hinting at the deep esoteric knowledge he possesses. This artwork not only showcases Rowlands' mastery in graphic arts but also serves as an allegory for literature enthusiasts who are fascinated by ancient myths and legends. It invites viewers to delve into the realms of paganism and Celtic polytheism, where gods and goddesses reigned supreme. As we admire this fine art piece from a private collection, it reminds us of the enduring allure surrounding druidry - a spiritual path deeply rooted in nature worship and reverence for ancestral traditions. Through its meticulous details and evocative composition, Rowlands' portrayal captures both the mystique and significance of these revered figures from our past.
