The Ripon Millenary Festival, Robin Hood and the Curtall Fryer - A Legendary Encounter
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this engraving by Charles J. Staniland, we are transported back to the historic Ripon Millenary Festival in 1886. The scene depicts a famous encounter between two iconic figures of folklore - Robin Hood and the Curtall Fryer. The image captures the essence of this ballad-inspired tale, as Robin Hood stands tall with his bow in hand, exuding confidence and determination. His legendary status as an outlaw-turned-hero is evident in his noble demeanor. Opposite him stands the formidable figure of the Curtall Fryer, a renowned adversary known for his strength and skill with a staff. The tension between these two rivals is palpable as they face each other on what appears to be the grounds of Fountain Abbey. The backdrop of this print showcases intricate details that transport us into medieval England - from architectural elements to lush landscapes. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and enduring fascination with legends such as Robin Hood. This artwork offers us a glimpse into history while celebrating timeless tales passed down through generations. As we admire this engraving from Bridgeman Images' collection, we can't help but feel captivated by its storytelling prowess and artistic beauty.
