In this print titled "Robin Hood and the Curtall Fryer" we are transported back in time to the enchanting world of old ballads. The artwork, created by John Gilbert in the late 19th century, captures a pivotal moment from the legendary tale. The scene unfolds as Robin Hood and his loyal companion Friar Tuck attempt to cross a river. The imposing figure of the Curtall Fryer stands before them, challenging their passage. With determination etched on their faces, our heroes face this formidable adversary head-on. Gilbert's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, bringing life and energy to each character. The vibrant colors evoke a sense of adventure and danger that permeates throughout the composition. This illustration hails from "The Book of Brave Old Ballads" published by Ward Lock around 1870. It serves as a visual testament to the enduring popularity of these age-old tales that have captivated audiences for generations. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost hear the echoes of ancient ballads resonating through time. It reminds us of our fascination with heroic figures who fight against injustice and champion noble causes. "Robin Hood and the Curtall Fryer" is not just an image frozen in time; it represents an entire era filled with courage, chivalry, and timeless stories passed down through generations.
