EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Armorel of Lyonesse, A Romance of To-Day" takes us back to the enchanting world of literary illustrations from the late 19th century. Created by Frederick Barnard after a work by Walter Besant, this print captures a pivotal moment in the story. The scene depicts Armorel of Lyonesse, a character whose name alone evokes intrigue and mystery. With delicate strokes and intricate details, Barnard brings her to life on paper. Her expression is one of curiosity and longing as she gazes into the distance, perhaps contemplating her fate or yearning for adventure. Besant's novel was published in 1889 and became an instant sensation among readers seeking escapism through romantic tales set in contemporary times. This engraving beautifully encapsulates the essence of that era's fascination with love stories intertwined with societal issues. As we admire this piece from a private collection, it transports us back to a time when literature held immense power over people's imaginations. It serves as a reminder that even today, storytelling continues to captivate our hearts and minds across different mediums. Bridgeman Images has preserved this exquisite artwork for generations to come. Its inclusion in Fine Art Finder allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its historical significance within the realm of literary illustrations.
