EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in British antiquity, before the Roman conquest, showcasing a Druidic student and novice in front of traditional straw houses. The scene is rich with symbolism and cultural significance, as the disciple carries a cup and a dove - symbols of wisdom and peace.
The figures are depicted in intricate detail, reflecting the meticulous work of artist Robert Havell and illustrator Charles Hamilton Smith. The Druidic Awenydd (Bardic disciple) stands tall and proud, embodying the ancient traditions of his people. Beside him, the novice looks on with curiosity and reverence, eager to learn from his mentor.
In the background, wooden cabins with straw roofs add to the authenticity of this pre-Roman era scene. Each element in this composition tells a story of Britain's early inhabitants, their beliefs, customs, and way of life.
This hand-colored aquatint print is not just a visual delight but also serves as an important historical document. It offers us a glimpse into a world long gone but still preserved through artistry and craftsmanship.
Overall, this print is a testament to the enduring legacy of British culture and heritage that continues to fascinate us today.
