Sir Galahad - oil on board

— Joseph Noel Paton (Scotland, 1834–1890)

[byjove]

I love how Sir Galahad is effeminate but in a Renaissance depiction of an angel way. It’s a symbol of his eternal youth and purity. Whatever. 21 year old man who is the same brand of androgynous as Joan of Arc. He has evolved above gender in a spiritual way like the Public Universal Friend. To me.

Also, it’s so sad that Sir Galahad’s horse does not have a name but he is always depicted with the same horse.
