EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour lithograph print depicts a scene from The Golden Legend, showcasing Lucifer and his angels in all their malevolent glory. The artist, Sidney Meteyard, skillfully captures the dramatic moment as the fallen angels hasten to drag a ponderous cross of iron from its station. The vivid colours bring this medieval tale to life, with each angel exuding an air of defiance and rebellion.
The illustration is part of a collection for The Golden Legend by H.W. Longfellow, beautifully brought to life by Meteyard's intricate and detailed artwork. This piece transports viewers back to the middle ages, where saints and biblical characters come alive on the page.
Lucifer himself is depicted with striking intensity, his dark wings outstretched as he commands his minions to carry out their dark deeds. The sense of urgency in the scene is palpable, drawing viewers into the world of ancient legends and folklore.
This print serves as a reminder of the power of storytelling through art, capturing both the beauty and darkness that lies within our collective imagination. It is a testament to Meteyard's talent as an illustrator and storyteller, bringing timeless tales to new audiences through his evocative imagery.
