EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a poignant scene from the British ballad "Lucy and Colin," penned by Thomas Tickell in the early 18th century. The ballad is an adaptation of the traditional English folk tale, "Fair Margaret and Sweet William." The image portrays the tragic love story of Will, represented by the young man in the foreground, and Lucy, the woman in the background, with her arms outstretched towards him. Will, also known as Thomas, is shown in the act of planting a posy of sweet violets on the grave of his beloved Lucy. The sweet violets symbolize the fleeting nature of their love, as they are known to wilt quickly. The title "Lucy and Colin" is derived from the alternative names given to the characters in various versions of the ballad. Thomas Tickell's rendition of this classic tale adds a sentimental and historical depth to the traditional ballad. The poet's use of language paints a vivid picture of the love between Lucy and Colin, as well as the tragic circumstances that led to their untimely separation. The ballad's enduring popularity is a testament to the universal theme of love and loss. The print, with its intricate details and rich colors, beautifully captures the essence of the ballad. The somber mood is conveyed through the use of muted colors and the melancholic expression on the faces of the figures. The print serves as a visual representation of the timeless tale and invites the viewer to reflect on the power of love and the bittersweet nature of its passing.
