EDITORS COMMENTS
In this lithograph, we are transported back in time to witness a scene of courtly love and medieval grandeur. The print depicts Robert of Normandy, the valiant knight, paying court to Lady Sibylla in a magnificent procession. The composition is rich with historical details as Charles Ricketts skillfully captures the essence of English history. The costumes worn by both Robert and Lady Sibylla are exquisitely rendered, showcasing the opulence and elegance of the era. Their horses stand tall and proud, symbolizing their noble lineage. As we gaze at this print, we can almost hear the sounds of trumpets announcing their arrival and see the curious crowd gathering to catch a glimpse of these illustrious figures. It is evident that Robert's intentions towards Lady Sibylla are honorable as he respectfully courts her amidst an atmosphere charged with anticipation. This engraving was originally published in Cassells History of England around 1920, reminding us how art has always been intertwined with storytelling throughout history. Now part of a private collection but available for public appreciation through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, this litho serves as a window into an enchanting past filled with chivalry and romance. Through Ricketts' masterful technique and attention to detail, viewers can immerse themselves in this timeless moment where knights sought favor from fair ladies - a testament to the enduring power and allure of courtly love throughout centuries gone by.
