EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the vibrant and unforgettable character of the Wife of Bath, one of the most intriguing figures in Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. Dated circa 1387, the print depicts the Wife of Bath astride a horse, her regal bearing and confident gaze suggesting a woman of great experience and independence. The inscription "So much of dalliance and fair speech" is a reference to the Wife of Bath's prologue, in which she boasts of her many marriages and her ability to manipulate men with her words and charms. Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, a collection of 24 interconnected stories told by a group of pilgrims on their journey to Canterbury Cathedral, is considered a seminal work of medieval literature. The tales, which include the Wife of Bath's story of "The Miller's Tale," "The Reeve's Tale," and "The Merchant's Tale," were published in the late 14th century and remain a rich source of insight into medieval life and culture. This print, by an unknown artist, offers a tantalizing glimpse into the world of Chaucer's tales and the larger historical context in which they were written. The horseback setting may be a reference to the Wife of Bath's travels and adventures, while the richly detailed clothing and accessories suggest the wealth and status of the pilgrims and the broader society they inhabited. Overall, this image is a captivating reminder of the enduring power of Chaucer's stories and the vibrant world they bring to life.
