The Departure of the Knights

Click on the image to enlarge it.
Off on a jolly adventure, the knights who have sworn to seek the Holy Grail say their farewells to the ladies of the court. Although they have been warned by the usual convenient holy man, few of the knights understand how serious this quest is, or how many of them will never come back from it. This is another tapestry (see also “
The Failure of Lancelot“) designed by Burne-Jones for William Morris and company; again, I regret that I have it only in black and white from
Tapestries—
Their Origin, History, and Renaissance, by George Leland Hunter.
