EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating litho print titled "Come, change thine apparel for mine, old man" by Louis John Rhead depicts a pivotal moment in the legendary tale of Robin Hood. The image showcases an intense exchange between two characters - one being the iconic outlaw himself and the other an elderly man. In this scene, Robin Hood proposes a daring plan to his companion: swapping their clothing as a clever disguise. The artwork beautifully captures the tension and excitement surrounding this transformative moment. With meticulous detail and skillful engraving techniques, Rhead brings these characters to life on paper. The composition is filled with symbolism and emotion as both men prepare to embark on a dangerous adventure. Through their exchanged apparel, they not only conceal their true identities but also challenge societal norms and expectations. This litho print is part of Rhead's illustrations for Bold Robin Hood, published by Harper in 1912. It serves as a testament to the artist's ability to capture the essence of folklore through his masterful storytelling skills. Displayed in private collections worldwide, this remarkable piece continues to captivate viewers with its rich narrative and timeless appeal. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded of the enduring power of legends like Robin Hood that have captured our imaginations for centuries.
