Return to Avalon

WV2214/2025

Coloured pencils and watercolour on Steinbach paper.

 

Avalon, in this saga, is a place "hidden in the mists," accessible only to those who can summon the magical boat and find the island. According to the saga, this is the island where King Arthur rests after his wound by Mordred at the Battle of Camlann, having been brought there by his half-sister Morgan le Fay or three other priestesses. According to some legends, he rests there until he awakens again to save England. According to the same legend, Avalon is the island where Excalibur was once forged. (wikipedia)
