1893 1894 Arthurian Lancelot Legend Witch Myth
EDITORS COMMENTS
Lancelot and Hellawes, 1894, Mary Evans Picture Library This evocative image captures the legendary tale of Sir Lancelot and the sorceress Hellawes, a captivating episode from the rich mythology of Arthurian England. The scene unfolds in an enchanted forest, where the chivalrous knight, Sir Lancelot, is shown in determined pursuit of the witch Hellawes, who is depicted with an otherworldly and sinister presence. The year is 1894, and this photograph, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the enduring allure of the Arthurian legend. The image is a testament to the power of storytelling and the ability of art to transport us to another time and place. Sir Lancelot, one of King Arthur's most trusted and celebrated knights, is known for his bravery, honor, and unwavering loyalty. However, his legendary status is also marred by his ill-fated love affair with Queen Guinevere, which ultimately leads to the downfall of Camelot. In this image, Lancelot is shown in his quintessential knightly attire, embodying the ideals of chivalry and courage. Hellawes, the witch, represents the darker side of the Arthurian world. She is a figure of intrigue and fear, with her long, flowing robes and piercing gaze. According to the legend, she is a sorceress who uses her powers to ensnare Sir Lancelot, luring him away from his duties and ultimately contributing to the fall of Camelot. This photograph, with its hauntingly beautiful composition and evocative details, invites us to explore the complex and timeless tale of Sir Lancelot and the witch Hellawes. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power of myth and legend, and the captivating stories that have shaped our collective imagination for centuries.
