EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic print depicts the legendary figure of Saint George, the brave and virtuous knight renowned for his heroic defeat of a dragon. The image, believed to be the first of its kind in existence, captures the moment of triumph as Saint George thrusts his lance decisively down the dragon's throat. The dragon, a symbol of evil and chaos, lies defeated at his feet, its menacing presence vanquished. Saint George, a soldier in the Roman army, gained sainthood for his unwavering faith and courage. According to the popular legend, he was called upon to rescue a princess from the clutches of a fearsome dragon. With nothing but his faith and a cross, he confronted the beast and, through divine intervention, emerged victorious. This print, produced during the time of William Caxton, the first printer in England, is a testament to the enduring power of the Saint George legend. The image, though simple in composition, conveys the strength and determination of the saint, as well as the triumph of good over evil. The intricate details of the print, from the textured scales of the dragon to the veins on Saint George's hand, underscore the skill and artistry of the printer and engraver. The historical significance of this print is further amplified by its early provenance. The advent of printing technology in the late 15th century revolutionized the dissemination of knowledge and ideas, making it possible for images like this to reach a wider audience. This print, therefore, not only represents a pivotal moment in the history of Saint George and his legend but also in the history of printmaking itself.
