EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in the legendary tale of King Arthur. Painted by the talented artist Walter Crane in 1911, it depicts the young Arthur drawing the sword from the stone, thereby fulfilling his destiny as the rightful King of England. This iconic image serves as the frontispiece for Henry Gilbert's first edition book, "Stories of the Knights of the Round Table". In this scene, we witness Arthur's remarkable feat amidst a crowd of onlookers who are witnessing history unfold before their eyes. The boy-turned-king stands tall and determined, clad in medieval armor that symbolizes his readiness to lead his people into battle. As he pulls out Excalibur from its rocky sheath, an air of awe and reverence fills both church and country. The vibrant colors used by Crane bring life to this ancient legend while highlighting its significance within British culture and Christian tradition. The composition masterfully combines elements of religion, monarchy, warfare, and mythological symbolism. As we gaze upon this print today, over a century later, we are reminded not only of King Arthur's legendary status but also how tales like these continue to captivate our imagination across generations. It is through artistry such as Walter Crane's that these timeless stories are preserved for all to appreciate and admire.
