EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching, titled "Two Galloping Horsemen [one carrying his own head]" by John Duncan, takes us on a thrilling journey into the realm of Scottish folklore. Measuring 12.1x7.9 cm, this print showcases the artist's mastery in capturing both beauty and horror within a single frame. The image depicts two horsemen galloping through an eerie landscape, their horses' hooves pounding against the ground with urgency. One rider stands out from the other as he carries his own severed head in one hand, creating an unsettling and macabre scene that sends shivers down your spine. As we delve deeper into this artwork, we are transported to a world where myth intertwines with reality. The figures seem to be engaged in a frantic chase or perhaps fleeing from an unknown terror that lurks just beyond our sight. Their expressions reveal sheer panic and fear as they navigate through this nightmarish scenario. Duncan's meticulous attention to detail brings every element of this print to life – from the flowing manes of the horses to the hauntingly vacant eyes of the headless rider. This piece serves as a reminder of how art can evoke powerful emotions and transport us into realms beyond our imagination. Displayed at The McManus in Dundee, UK, it is no wonder why this etching has captivated audiences for generations. It continues to intrigue viewers with its combination of mystery, horror, and mythical allure - making it an unforgettable addition to any art
