EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a captivating moment from the Warwick Pageant of 1906. Titled "Guy and Phyllis after the slaying of the Dun Cow, Episode IV" this image transports us back in time to witness a historical reenactment that took place at Warwick Castle. In this scene, Guy and Phyllis stand side by side, their faces still flushed with excitement after triumphantly defeating the mythical Dun Cow. The intensity of their expressions is palpable as they bask in the aftermath of their heroic feat. This photograph serves as an illustration for a souvenir commemorating the Warwick Pageant, which was held to celebrate Queen Ethelfleda's conquest of Mercia one thousand years prior. The photographer, an anonymous English artist from the 20th century, skillfully captures every detail in this monochrome composition. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the characters' costumes and emphasizes their triumphant poses against a backdrop reminiscent of medieval times. As we gaze upon this historic pageant captured through time's lens, we are transported into an era where chivalry and valor were celebrated with grandeur. This image not only immortalizes a significant event but also invites us to reflect on our own fascination with history and its enduring power to captivate our imagination.
