Herne the Hunter and Mabel - A Tale of Myth and Mystery
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image from the annals of English folklore, the legendary figure of Herne the Hunter soars through the air, clutching the frightened Mabel in his strong arms as they flee from the inferno that engulfs the forest behind them. This evocative print, created by the renowned English artist and printmaker, George Cruikshank, offers a vivid interpretation of one of the most intriguing tales from English mythology. Herne the Hunter, a half-man, half-stag creature, is said to have roamed the ancient forests of England since time immemorial. He was believed to be the protector of the woods and the guardian of the wild game, but also a mischievous and sometimes malevolent spirit. According to legend, Herne was once in love with a mortal woman named Mabel, who lived in the forest with her father. Their love was forbidden, and when Mabel's father discovered their secret, he banished Herne from the forest. Heartbroken and enraged, Herne took his revenge by setting the forest ablaze. In this print, Cruikshank masterfully captures the essence of this timeless tale, with Herne's fierce determination to save Mabel from the flames, and Mabel's terror and despair as she clings to him. The burning woods in the background add a sense of urgency and danger, while the contrast between the dark, ominous forest and the ethereal, otherworldly figure of Herne creates a hauntingly beautiful image that has captivated audiences for generations. This print is a testament to the enduring power of folklore and mythology to inspire and captivate our imaginations, and to the artistic genius of George Cruikshank, who brought this enchanting story to life in a way that continues to captivate and intrigue us today.
