EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Frank Dicksee's masterpiece, "La Belle Dame Sans Merci" exhibited in 1902. Painted with oil on canvas, this artwork measures an impressive 137.1x187.9 cm and is housed at the Bristol Museum and Art Gallery in the UK. Inspired by John Keats' ballad of the same name, this painting depicts a scene filled with passion and mystery. The beautiful woman portrayed here is known as "The Beautiful Lady Without Mercy". Her medieval attire adds to her allure, while her flowing hair frames her enchanting face. In this composition, we witness a tender moment between two lovers - a knight and his lady fair. Their love seems both intense and forbidden as they share a passionate kiss amidst a backdrop of wild horses galloping freely. Dicksee's attention to detail brings each element to life; from the intricate armor worn by the knight to the vibrant depiction of wildlife surrounding them. This painting captures not only their love but also hints at potential danger lurking beneath its surface. Donated by Mrs Yda Richardson in 1913, this remarkable piece continues to captivate audiences today through its timeless beauty and evocative storytelling. It serves as a testament to Dicksee's skill as an artist and his ability to bring literature alive through visual artistry.
