EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph from 1910, titled "The dragon sank towards him, opening its terrible jaws" transports us to the realm of ancient legends. The scene depicts a moment from the myth of Cuchulain, the valiant Champion of Ireland. With his shield held high and an unwavering gaze, a courageous man stands defiantly before a ferocious dragon descending upon him. The artist William Henry Margetson skillfully captures the intensity and terror of this encounter. The monstrous creature's mouth gapes wide open, revealing razor-sharp teeth that threaten to devour its prey. As we observe this brave warrior facing his fears head-on, we are reminded of the timeless concept of heroism. Intriguingly placed within the context of British mythology and folklore in Hero Myths and Legends of the British Race by MI Ebbutt, this print serves as a testament to both historical significance and artistic mastery. It offers us a glimpse into an era where tales of mythical beasts stirred imaginations across Britain. As we contemplate this monochrome masterpiece from over a century ago, it evokes feelings of awe mixed with trepidation. The unknown outcome hangs in suspense as our protagonist remains resolute against overwhelming odds. This image is not only visually striking but also symbolizes courage in times when one must stand firm against terrifying forces.
