Description

This time-honored retelling of the Arthurian legends follows the adventures of Sir Gerwaint, Galahad's pursuit of the Holy Grail, as well as the last days of King Arthur-his attack on Sir Launcelot, fatal battle with Sir Mordred, and final journey to Avalon. Howard Pyle's four-volume series on the life and kingship of Arthur, of which this is the last, cemented the author's well-deserved reputation. The wonderful medieval flavor of The Story of the Grail and the Passing of Arthur is enhanced by Pyle's courtly language and his 39 richly atmospheric pen & ink illustrations. Pyle's work as an illustrator came to epitomize the "Golden Age of American Illustration." HOWARD PYLE (1853-1911) was an American writer and illustrator. Born in Wilmington, Delaware, Pyle began teaching illustration in his forties, and counted among his students N. C. Wyeth, Maxfield Parrish, Frank E. Schoonover, and Jessie Wilcox Smith. His many books were frequently set in mediaeval Europe.
