Dragons
Purple Dragon & Castle
Cover Announcement
This individually hand painted cachet is the fourth and final cover in the Dragon mini-series. The popular image configured from earlier dragons in Western cultures in the late Middle Ages is that of a four-legged winged monster oapabie of breathing fire. These are portrayed as creatures to be overcome or tamed by cultural heroes or popular legends such as "Saint George and the Dragon." In my hand watercolored cachet, a beautiful maiden leads a tamed winged-dragon on a silken leash in front of her hilltop castle.
This attractive Collins set will forever be sought by those in the hobby. Linda and I traveled to the first day ceremonies in Columbus, Ohio and enjoyed the festivities and the setting of the medieval castle. Make sure you have them all.
Maiden with Drason - C5804 - is now ready at $15.00.
