EDITORS COMMENTS
Branwen, Daughter of Llyr: A Heart-Wrenching Tale of Love and Rescue from Medieval Welsh Literature This evocative image captures the sorrowful figure of Branwen, Daughter of Llyr, a heroine from the ancient Welsh legend found in the Mabinogi. Branwen is depicted here in a melancholic mood, dressed in a colorful yet sad costume of the 1910s era. The tragic tale begins with Branwen being married off to the cruel Irish king Matholwch, despite her deep love for her brother Efnisien. Despite her misery, Branwen demonstrates remarkable strength and resilience. She tames a starling and sends it to Wales with a heartfelt message to her brother, asking for his help. The starling, with its wings spread wide, symbolizes Branwen's desperate plea for rescue. The image, created circa 1915, is a poignant representation of Branwen's plight. The use of muted colors and the somber expression on her face further emphasize her sadness and unhappiness. This print, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, is a testament to the enduring power of this medieval Welsh legend and the timeless themes of love, family, and the indomitable human spirit.
