John Jellicoe (British, 1843-1909). Elaine in the Barge. An original pen-and-ink drawing. Penned in is a quotation from Tennyson’s “Lancelot and Elaine”: “Then turned the tongueless man—and pointed to the damsel.”
A figure painter and illustrator, Jellicoe was a prolific artist who contributed illustrations to newspapers, magazines, and books. Although he occasionally produced color illustrations, most were pen-and-ink, like the one displayed here.
This is the first piece of original Arthurian art acquired by the Lupacks, so it holds a special place in their collection.
