Sir Lancelot du Lake

Eleanor Fortescue Brickdale, ROI, RWS 1872-1945

Pen and ink

c.1898

Described in the caption simply as an "Illustration"

Source: E.B.S. (in The Studio, 107)

The artist's illustration for an old ballad of the same title is roundly criticised in the Studio commentary. It strikes "E.B.S." as "less mature" than Brickdale's other works, especially compared with the work of two of the most distinctive illustrators of the day. [Commentary continues below.]
