The Knight and His Companion
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print created by John Tenniel in 1887. Inspired by Albert Durer's renowned artwork, "Knight, Death and the Devil". Tenniel masterfully captures the essence of this iconic image. In this wood engraving, we are transported to a world of satire and social commentary prevalent during the 19th century. A lone knight on horseback rides through a desolate landscape accompanied by an intriguing companion. The knight represents traditional values, honor, and chivalry while his enigmatic companion symbolizes death or perhaps even the devil himself. Tenniel's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. The intricate lines bring life to both the knight and his steed as they navigate their way through this surreal scene. The majority of men depicted in this era were preoccupied with societal norms and expectations; however, Tenniel challenges these conventions through his thought-provoking imagery. This print serves as a reminder that beneath society's façade lies hidden monsters waiting to be confronted. It invites viewers to question their own beliefs and confront their fears head-on just like our brave knight does here. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in London Charivari magazine, "The Knight and His Companion" continues to captivate audiences with its powerful symbolism even today. Tenniel's artistic prowess shines brightly through this remarkable piece that stands as a testament to his genius within the realm of wood engraving artistry.
