EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a moment of historical significance as King Alfred the Great seeks refuge in a humble peasant woman's cottage. The image depicts the legendary scene from Eleanor Farjeon's "Mighty Men," where the disguised king is welcomed into the rustic abode to watch over some cakes baking in the oven.
The contrast between royalty and peasantry is striking, with Alfred's regal presence juxtaposed against the simple surroundings of the cottage. The peasant woman, depicted with warmth and hospitality, opens her home to a stranger without realizing his true identity.
Alfred's decision to seek shelter among common folk reflects his reputation as a wise and just ruler who cared deeply for his people. This act of humility and empathy endeared him to generations of Englishmen, solidifying his place in history as one of England's greatest monarchs.
The black-and-white composition adds a timeless quality to this scene from 9th century England, capturing both the historical context and enduring legend surrounding King Alfred. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness a moment of connection between king and commoner that speaks volumes about leadership, compassion, and unity.
