EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Pictures of the Year VIII, They bound me on. . . . 1888" by Charles Bennet Lawes takes us back to the enchanting world of 19th-century Britain. The image showcases a powerful metaphorical scene that encapsulates danger, romance, and tragedy. In this mesmerizing artwork, we witness a damsel in distress bound to a horse's back while rearing up in perilous circumstances. A male figure stands nearby, embodying the role of her rescuer or perhaps her lover. Both figures are depicted in their nakedness, symbolizing vulnerability and raw emotions. Lawes' illustration skillfully captures the essence of a love story gone awry amidst adversity. The intensity conveyed through his intricate details evokes strong emotions within viewers as they become immersed in this tragic narrative. Originally published in The Graphic, an illustrated weekly newspaper from July to December 1888, this artwork serves as a testament to Lawes' artistic prowess during the Victorian era. His ability to sculpt such poignant scenes with great precision is truly remarkable. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking piece from Heritage Images collection curated by The Print Collector, we are transported back in time and reminded of the timeless themes that continue to captivate our hearts: love, danger, sacrifice - all beautifully intertwined within one extraordinary work of art.
