EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable 17th-century equestrian statue of King Charles II of England, masterfully represented as the legendary St. George slaying the fearsome dragon. Created by the talented sculptor Gottfried Leigeber, this exquisite artwork is a testament to both artistic skill and historical symbolism. In this stunning depiction, King Charles II embodies the valiant figure of St. George, embodying courage and chivalry in his noble quest to vanquish evil. The intricately detailed statue captures every nuance of the king's regal attire and determined expression as he fearlessly confronts the menacing dragon beneath him. Published in London in 1855 as part of "Handbook of the Arts of the Middle Ages and Renaissance" this photograph offers us a glimpse into an era where artistry flourished alongside political power. It serves as a reminder that even monarchs were not immune to being immortalized through art, their personas intertwined with mythical narratives that conveyed strength and virtue. Ken Welsh's expertly captured image allows us to appreciate both Leigeber's craftsmanship and King Charles II's enduring legacy. Whether displayed within a gallery or adorning your personal space, this print invites contemplation on history, mythology, and human creativity at its finest.
