EDITORS COMMENTS
The Arrow (w/c on paper) by Eleanor Fortescue-Brickdale is a captivating print that transports viewers to a mythical realm of strength and grace. In this 76x53 cm artwork, the artist skillfully combines elements of nature, mythology, and femininity to create a truly mesmerizing composition. At the center of the painting stands a resolute female figure, embodying both beauty and power. Dressed in flowing drapery and donning sturdy boots, she exudes an air of confidence as she holds her bow with precision. Accompanied by her loyal greyhound companion, they embark on an epic hunt through rocky terrain. The presence of arrows scattered around hints at their purpose - these are not mere mortals but mythological figures engaged in a timeless pursuit. With Cupid's arrow symbolically present, love intertwines with hunting prowess under the watchful gaze of Artemis or Diana herself – goddesses associated with wilderness and protectorship. Fortescue-Brickdale's meticulous attention to detail shines through in every brushstroke; from the sinewy muscles visible beneath the huntress' skin to each carefully rendered weapon including her walking stick-cum-cane. The landscape serves as both backdrop and character itself – rugged yet enchanting. This stunning print from Leeds Museums and Galleries captures the essence of bravery intertwined with feminine allure. It invites us into an ancient world where women command respect for their skills as hunters while embracing their divine connection to nature.
