About this work

A knight in chainmail stands in shallow water beside a dark barge, gently lifting a reclining figure into it while hooded women in robes watch and one raises a long pole. Moonlight reflects on the lake, and the scene is rendered as a black-and-white reproduction of an illustration by William Henry Margetson, dated 1914.
