Description

‘But, O! what maskers, richly dight,
Can boast of bosoms half so light!
England was merry England, when
Old Christmas brought his sports again.
‘Twas Christmas broach’d the mightiest ale;
‘Twas Christmas told the merriest tale;
A Christmas gambol oft could cheer
The poor man’s heart through half the year.’


Sir Walter Scott



A festive, romantic project from last month where a knight rides calmly through the snow cradling his good lady who has volunteered to ride his horse for him. The lady herself seems quite content leaning against the mysterious, but gentle knight whose helmet retains an austere, iron-clad visage belying warmth that can guard against the bitterest of cold. Hope everyone had a happy Christmas and New Year. Much has to be in store for us in 2023.
