1070 Bear Damsel Distress Hereward Kisses Passion Slays Wake
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative medieval scene captures the moment of tender affection between Hereward the Wake and Alftruda, following the heroic deed of the former slaying a bear that had been terrorizing her village in the year 1070. Hereward, a legendary English figure known for his bravery and resistance against the Norman invasion, had been summoned to protect the people of Crowland from the fearsome beast. With his sword raised high and determination etched on his face, Hereward charges towards the bear, ready to defend the community he loved. As the battle ensues, Alftruda, the damsel in distress, watches anxiously from a safe distance, her heart pounding with fear and anticipation. The bear, enraged and fierce, clashes with the determined Hereward, but the hero's strength and skill soon prevail. With a final mighty blow, Hereward brings the beast to its knees, leaving the village in relief and awe. As the dust settles, Alftruda, overcome with gratitude and emotion, rushes to the hero's side. She throws her arms around him, smothering him with passionate kisses, a gesture of love and appreciation for his bravery and selflessness. Hereward, taken aback but touched by the gesture, embraces her in return, their connection deepening in this poignant moment of triumph and tenderness. This scene, captured in this beautiful print from Mary Evans Prints Online, encapsulates the passion, history, and events of the medieval era, offering a glimpse into the world of chivalry, love, and heroism that continues to captivate our imaginations to this day.
