EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Illustration for A Colonel of The Empire" takes us back to the late 19th century. Created by Richard Caton Woodville II, this print beautifully captures a scene from Emily Lawless' renowned novel. In the illustration, we see a group of elegantly dressed individuals engaged in an enchanting dance. The men wear military uniforms adorned with medals and epaulets, signifying their high rank as colonels of the empire. Their confident postures exude authority and strength. Amidst the swirling dancers stands a distinguished figure holding a wooden sword. This central character is undoubtedly the protagonist of Lawless' story - A Colonel of The Empire. His stern expression suggests both determination and responsibility as he leads his fellow officers through challenging times. Woodville's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. From the intricate patterns on each dancer's attire to the delicate folds in their garments, no aspect is overlooked. The composition evokes a sense of grandeur and elegance that was characteristic of Victorian society during this era. It transports us into Lawless' world, where honor, duty, and passion intertwine against a backdrop of imperial conquests. This rare print serves as an invaluable window into history—an exquisite piece that not only showcases Woodville's artistic mastery but also immortalizes Lawless' literary masterpiece for generations to come.
