EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Enid, a character from Alfred Tennyson's renowned work, Idylls of the King. Created by Eleanor Fortescue-Brickdale in 1910 and published by Hodder & Stoughton, this colour lithograph transports us to the enchanting world of Arthurian legend. Enid stands gracefully amidst a lush garden, her medieval costume flowing elegantly around her. The walled enclosure surrounding her adds an air of mystery and intrigue to the scene. Her headdress exudes regality and hints at her noble lineage. The image evokes a sense of romance and poetry as Enid embodies both strength and vulnerability. She is a symbol of love and loyalty within the Arthurian realm, known for her unwavering devotion to her husband. The hortus conclusus or enclosed garden represents not only physical boundaries but also emotional barriers that Enid must navigate throughout her journey. This visual metaphor beautifully reflects the themes explored in Tennyson's poem. As we gaze upon this stunning illustration, we are transported into a legendary world filled with mythical tales and timeless characters. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power of literature to captivate our imaginations across generations. This print from Fine Art Finder brings together artistry, storytelling, and history in one exquisite piece that will surely delight any admirer of Arthurian legends or lovers of fine art alike.
