EDITORS COMMENTS
Kempion (also known as Kemp Owyne): A British Ballad of Magic, Curses, and Redemption This print depicts a scene from the traditional English ballad "Kempion," a tale of enchantment, betrayal, and the transformative power of love. The story follows a young woman, often named Kempion or Owyne, who is cruelly cursed by her jealous stepmother. Desperate to be rid of her stepdaughter, the stepmother transforms her into a fearsome dragon, condemning her to remain in that form until a king's son comes to kiss her three times. The image portrays the moment of truth, as the brave and kind-hearted prince approaches the dragon, determined to break the curse. Surrounded by his loyal knights, the prince extends his hand, offering the dragon a chance at redemption. The dragon, once a beautiful maiden, gazes at him with a mixture of fear, hope, and longing. The air around them shimmers with the magic of the enchantment, as the prince's kisses begin to restore Kempion's human form. The ballad of Kempion is a timeless tale that has been passed down through generations, originating from the rich oral tradition of British folklore. This story, filled with elements of the supernatural, legend, and history, continues to enthrall and inspire audiences today. The print, with its intricate details and vivid colors, serves as a visual reminder of the transformative power of love and the enduring allure of the stories that have shaped our collective imagination.
