EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic painting "St. George slaying the dragon" by John Byam Liston Shaw, created in 1908. The artwork depicts a legendary scene of bravery and heroism as St. George, adorned in plumed helmet and plate armor, fearlessly confronts a monstrous dragon rearing up before him. The composition beautifully captures the intensity of the moment, with St. George wielding his lance poised to strike down the ferocious beast. The intricate details of their armoured clothing and mesh size add depth and realism to this traditional portrayal of medieval combat. Surrounded by an array of horses ranging from majestic racehorses to sturdy shire horses, this image evokes a sense of grandeur and power. These animals symbolize strength and serve as loyal companions to both knights and soldiers throughout history. The fantastical nature of this scene is further enhanced by the presence of other mythical creatures lurking in the background, adding an element of wonderment to this fictional world. Overall, this print offers viewers a glimpse into an age-old legend brought to life through Shaw's masterful brushstrokes. It serves as a reminder that tales like these continue to captivate our imagination even today.
