Guinevere's Rescue
Shot at the sim of my friend Liandra, whose help with this is genuinely appreciated.
I saw when I visited Enchantment that there was a photo contest with a King Arthur theme. I have since been doing Knight pix. This is the first of three I have finished.
In the King Arthur legend, Arthur condemns Guinevere to be burned alive for her adultery with Lancelot. Lancelot and his retainers rode to the rescue:
[a]nd who that stood against them, there were they slain; there might none withstand Sir Launcelot [sic], so all that bare arms and withstood them, there were they slain, full many a noble knight.
Mort d'Arthur, Chapter VIII
Yes I made this very difficult for myself by inserting into the final three different pictures of me in different costumes.
This was the first of three King Arthur pictures I did. I eventually decided to submit the other two. Although I thought the picture was very dark I thought it had a certain energy I liked and posted it anyway.
I researched all the story bits that tried to depict including reading parts the very wordy Malory. English was a very different language when he was writing!
I did run across a wonderful song about Guinevere. I am linking it here:
