EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing historical print depicts the legendary figure of the Wizard of Lincoln, also known as the Blackbird of Haxey, in the midst of identifying two unfaithful servants as robbers for a Lincolnshire farmer. The scene unfolds in the picturesque English countryside, with the wizard, disguised as a blackbird, perched on a tree branch, observing the two men below. The Wizard of Lincoln is a folklore character deeply rooted in the history of Lincoln and the surrounding areas of Lincolnshire. According to the myth, the wizard was a wise and powerful figure who used his magical abilities to protect the local community from harm. One of his most famous exploits involved him transforming himself into a blackbird to uncover the deceit of two farmers' servants who had been stealing from their employer. The farmers, suspecting something was amiss, had placed a large sum of money in a chest and asked the wizard to keep it safe. The cunning servants, however, saw an opportunity to enrich themselves and attempted to steal the money while the farmers were away. The wizard, in his blackbird form, watched as the men approached the chest, and upon seeing their illicit actions, revealed their true nature by transforming back into his human form and confronting them. This print captures the moment of truth, with the wizard pointing an accusing finger at the two men, who are shown looking shocked and guilty. The farmers, grateful for the wizard's intervention, rewarded him with a generous sum of money and the two dishonest servants were brought to justice. The legend of the Wizard of Lincoln continues to captivate the imagination of locals and visitors alike, and serves as a reminder of the importance of honesty and the power of the supernatural in shaping the folklore of England's rich history.
