EDITORS COMMENTS
- A British Ballad by William Wordsworth (1770-1850) This evocative print depicts the melancholic scene from William Wordsworth's ballad "Ruth," a poignant tale of love, loss, and redemption set against the backdrop of rural England. The poem, first published in 1801, tells the story of Ruth, a young shepherdess who is betrayed by her lover, the wealthy landowner Edward, who marries another woman. Heartbroken and desperate, Ruth prays for vengeance, but ultimately finds forgiveness and peace. Wordsworth's ballad is a prime example of the Romantic poet's exploration of the human condition and the power of nature to heal and inspire. The poem's haunting imagery and themes of love, loss, and redemption have resonated with readers for over two centuries. This print captures the essence of the ballad's narrative, with Ruth depicted as a mournful figure amidst the rolling hills and pastoral landscape of England. The muted colors and intricate details of the print transport the viewer to the world of the poem, immersing them in the beauty and sadness of Wordsworth's words. William Wordsworth (1770-1850) was a leading figure of the Romantic literary movement in England, known for his poetry that celebrated the natural world and the human spirit. "Ruth" is just one of many works that showcase his mastery of language and his deep connection to the land and the people of England.
