EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white woodcut print captures the essence of a round dance, as depicted in A Book of Roxburghe Ballads. The illustration showcases a lively gathering of men and women forming a perfect circle, their hands gracefully interlocked as they engage in the joyous art of dancing. The image is part of a collection of broadside ballads meticulously compiled by Robert Harley, 1st Earl of Oxford and Mortimer, and later John Ker, 3rd Duke of Roxburghe. Published together by John Payne Collier in 1847, these ballads offer an enchanting glimpse into English folk traditions from centuries past. In this particular scene, we witness the timeless beauty and communal spirit that characterizes traditional round dances. The circular formation symbolizes unity and equality among participants; there are no leaders or followers here – only individuals coming together to celebrate through movement. The medieval-inspired attire worn by both men and women adds an air of authenticity to the illustration while hinting at its Elizabethan origins. Each figure holds onto their partner's hand with grace and poise, embodying the elegance inherent in this age-old dance form. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing woodcut print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we can almost hear the melodic strains of music accompanying these dancers' rhythmic steps. It serves as a reminder that despite being separated by time, we can still connect with our ancestors through shared cultural expressions like dance - preserving tradition for generations to come
