EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print depicts the legendary moment when Saint George, an English knight, bravely confronts a fierce dragon. The historical account of this chivalric tale is beautifully captured in the accompanying ballad, which has been passed down through generations. Saint George, clad in armor and mounted on a noble steed, charges towards the dragon with determination and courage. The dragon, with its menacing scales and fiery breath, prepares to defend itself, ready to unleash its destructive power. The tension between the two adversaries is palpable, as the outcome of this epic battle hangs in the balance. The story of Saint George and the Dragon is deeply rooted in English history and folklore. According to legend, Saint George was a soldier in the Roman army who was stationed in Syria. When a dragon began terrorizing the town of Silene, the people turned to their Christian leader for protection. Saint George bravely faced the dragon, and with the sign of the cross, he slayed the beast and saved the townspeople. This heroic act of bravery and faith has made Saint George a beloved figure in English history and folklore. The intricate details of this Wcut print, produced by the Roxburghe School, showcase the skill and artistry of the engraver. The use of shading and hatching techniques add depth and texture to the image, bringing the scene to life. The print also features an ornate border, adorned with intricate floral designs and elegant scrollwork, which adds to the overall beauty and elegance of the piece. This print is not only a stunning work of art but also a testament to the enduring power of legend and folklore in shaping our cultural heritage. The image of Saint George and the Dragon continues to inspire and captivate audiences, reminding us of the courage and heroism that lies within us all.
