EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene straight out of Robert Burns' famous poem, "Tam O Shanter". In the midst of a stormy night, we witness the intense chase between Tam and a legion of hellish witches. Richard Cockle Lucas's etching beautifully brings this eerie moment to life. As lightning illuminates the dark sky, Tam's horse gallops furiously as he tries to escape from the terrifying sorceresses. The tension in the air is palpable as they close in on him with malevolent intent. The composition skillfully conveys both movement and fear, making it impossible for viewers not to feel their hearts race alongside Tam's. The nocturnal setting adds an extra layer of mystique to this haunting image. The horses' wild energy contrasts with their nakedness, emphasizing vulnerability amidst chaos. It serves as a reminder that even in our most desperate moments, we are stripped down to our core essence. Lucas's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his etching technique. Each witch exudes an otherworldly aura while riding alongside Tam on their broomsticks – a testament to his artistic prowess. This print from Fine Art Finder is not only visually stunning but also pays homage to one of Scotland's greatest literary works. It transports us into the heart-pounding world created by Burns and leaves us captivated by its timeless power and beauty.
