About this work

A reclining armoured knight sleeps on the grass beneath the spreading branches of a tree, his helmet lying nearby. Behind him, a procession of hooded riders on horses passes along a shaded path, with more armoured figures visible at the edges. This black-and-white print by William Henry Margetson, dated 1914, illustrates the Arthurian episode of Sir Launcelot asleep under the apple tree.
