EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print showcases the enchanting character of Morgan le Fay, depicted as a mermaid, from an 18th century English chapbook. Known for her association with Black Rock near Liverpool, England, Morgan exudes an air of mystery and allure in this portrayal. The intricate details of the woodcut bring to life the ethereal beauty of this mythical figure. Morgan le Fay is a prominent character in Arthurian legends and plays a significant role in Sir Thomas Mallory's "Le Morte d'Arthur". As Queen Morgause's half-sister and King Arthur's sorceress adversary, she embodies both power and cunning. This depiction captures her dual nature - part seductive siren luring sailors to their demise with her mesmerizing voice, while also embodying regal elegance. The black background accentuates Morgan's fair complexion and flowing hair as she emerges from the depths of the sea. Her bare breasts symbolize both vulnerability and strength, reflecting her complex persona. The artist skillfully portrays every detail with precision, creating a sense of realism that draws viewers into Morgan's world. This woodcut print by The Granger Collection serves as a reminder of the enduring fascination surrounding characters like Morgan le Fay. It invites us to explore tales woven through centuries while appreciating the artistry behind their visual representation.
