EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the enchanting world of the Faerie Queen, as depicted in George Harrap and Company's 1918 publication. The image, a colour lithograph by Gertrude E. Demain Hammond, beautifully illustrates a scene from Edmund Spenser's epic poem. In this mesmerizing artwork, we witness a mystical figure emerging from the depths of an ancient forest. With an air of mystery surrounding him, he delicately holds wildings in his hands – vibrant fruits whose sides are empurpled and smiling red. These forest treasures seem to radiate with their own magical energy. The composition exudes an ethereal quality through its use of soft hues and intricate details. It captures the essence of chivalry and romance that permeates throughout Spenser's work during the Elizabethan era in England. Hammond skillfully brings this fantastical moment to life, inviting viewers into a realm where fairies dance among flowers and knights embark on heroic quests. Through her artistry, she pays homage to Spenser's timeless poetry while adding her unique touch. This print serves as a testament to both Hammond's talent as an artist and Harrap and Company's dedication to bringing these stories alive for generations to come. It reminds us of the enduring power of literature and art in transporting us beyond our reality into realms filled with wonderment and imagination.
