EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration by HJ Ford depicts the legendary moment when Sir Bedivere casts the mythical sword Excalibur into the water. Taken from "The book of romance" in 1902, this print showcases Ford's exceptional talent for bringing ancient tales to life through his art. In this scene, we witness Sir Bedivere standing at the edge of a mystical lake, surrounded by an ethereal aura. With great solemnity and reverence, he holds Excalibur high above his head before releasing it into the depths below. The shimmering waters seem to come alive as they embrace the powerful weapon that once belonged to King Arthur himself. Ford's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. From Bedivere's resolute expression to the intricate patterns adorning his armor, each element adds depth and richness to this enchanting artwork. The influence of art nouveau can be seen in its flowing lines and organic forms, adding a touch of elegance to this medieval tale. This illustration not only captures a pivotal moment in Arthurian legend but also reflects Ford's mastery as an artist during the early 20th century. It serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with knights, magic, and timeless stories that continue to captivate our imaginations today.
