EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports us back to the mythical realm of King Arthur in 6th century Britain. This stunning image, captured in vibrant color, showcases the concept of death and dying as it depicts the final moments of England's legendary king. In this scene, we witness a solemn attendant holding a lantern to illuminate King Arthur's journey into the afterlife. The lighting creates an ethereal ambiance, emphasizing the mythological nature of this pivotal moment. As Arthur lies on his boat, surrounded by loyal subjects and mythological figures from British history, he sets sail towards eternity. The artist masterfully portrays not only the grandeur but also the melancholy associated with this significant event. The boats gently glide across calm waters while mournful faces reflect both sorrow and reverence for their departing monarch. This print serves as a poignant reminder of Arthur's legacy and his role as a symbol of British royalty. It captures a pivotal moment in history when one era ends and another begins. Through its rich colors and meticulous details, "The Passing of Arthur" invites viewers to contemplate mortality and ponder upon the enduring power of mythology. Created by an unknown artist under Thomas Nelson & Sons' publication "Highroads of History" this remarkable piece stands as a testament to Robert Hope's expertise as a collector.
