EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white lithograph by Newell Convers Wyeth, we are transported to the world of "The Black Arrow: A Tale of the Two Roses" by Robert Louis Stevenson. The image depicts Lawless, a character from the historical adventure and romance novel, leading his companion through treacherous terrain. Lawless takes charge, keeping half a step in front of his companion as they navigate their way forward. His head is held forward like a hunting dog on the scent, showing his determination and focus. Dressed in period-appropriate costumes, these figures embody the spirit of scouting and warfare during the Wars of the Roses. The snowy landscape adds an element of danger and secrecy to their mission. As outlaws caught between warring factions - Lancastrians and Yorkists - Lawless must carefully study every path they take to avoid detection by soldiers or rival groups. This print captures not only a moment from an enthralling story but also showcases Wyeth's skillful attention to detail in portraying historical accuracy. The use of arrows as symbols throughout the composition further emphasizes the central theme of conflict and power struggles. Whether you are familiar with Stevenson's novel or simply appreciate art that transports you into another time, this lithograph is sure to captivate your imagination.
