About this work

A pen-and-ink illustration shows the sword Excalibur rising upright in the foreground, its jeweled hilt and floral-wrapped grip radiating bright rays of light. Beside it, a bearded man in a helmet and ruffled collar stands behind a robed figure whose face is framed by ornate decorative shapes, with a row of stylized trees along the horizon.
