Tristan and Isolde is a very known Story in Europe. Especially in Germany. Thanks to Richard Wagners Opera with the same name, it became so popular King Ludwig II. of Bayern commissioned a Tristan and Isolde Painting for his Neuschwanstein Castle! It's painted by August Spieß (1881) and in his bedroom!

Here you can see the Painting in the Bedroom and how big it actually is. On the full Painting you can see Brangaine in the Background as well, what a sight to behold!

No one ever told me leaving was the easy part / I've got to stay away / Leaving you was easy, now I've got to do what's hard / I've got to stay away...

[a tristan for @mortiscausa’s ’march to camelot,’ for the prompt ‘love’]

#em draws stuff #march to camelot #arthurian things #arthuriana #tristan and iseult #BACK ON THIS HORSE AGAIN! it is going to STAY MARCH until I am DONE WITH ONE MORE OF THESE and THEN it may be april #this one was So Very Hard and I'm still not 100% sure on it but it's done and I did it and anyway I like it more than the cei one :/#I'm VERY pleased with the dragon altho' I can't rightly say where it was that I found the version of the story where there Is a dragon #I suppose it was either in roger lancelyn green or in rosemary sutcliff's 'the sword and the circle'#but having neither on hand at present I cannot exactly Check alas alack #caption lyrics are from 'stayaway' by muna as I was listening to the tiny desk version whilst drawing and I felt it was only apt

La Tavola Ritonda PDF is now available to read! Enjoy!

ID: When Isotta had returned to the pavilion, the tables were set out and food was prepared, and when water had been brought for their hands they sat down to eat. As they ate, Gariette looked out and saw Palamidesso going by looking for them, and pointed him out to Sir Tristano. Tristano got up and went to meet him, taking him by the hand and leading him into the pavilion, where he disarmed and sat at the table. They all passed that night in great joy.

There is so much that I want to say and share about the Tristan legend (long ago I once wrote a dissertation specifically on the love potion and various love magics in arthurian legend). What is most intriguing about it is how it's a narrative device that allows for such contradictory knightly behaviour.

Moreover, there are several variations in how the potion behaves, throwing even more complication into the mix. In Beroul's The Romance of Tristan, the oldest version that is believed to be closest to whatever an original tale might look like, the potion has a time limit, and wears off in the middle of the lovers' affair. In other versions, such as Thomas of Britain's Tristan, the love potion lasts until the end of the lovers' lifetimes.

In Le Morte D'Arthur, Malory works closely from the poem Sir Tristrem, as well as the Prose Tristan – a huge source which in turn takes many cues from Beroul and Thomas of Britain. Malory's lovers are in it for the long haul, "they loued eyther other so wel that neuer theyr loue departed for wele neyther for wo / And thus it happed the loue fyrste betwixe sire Tristram and la beale Isoud / the whiche loue neuer departed the dayes of their lyf | they loved either other so well that never their love departed for weal neither for woe. And thus it happed the love first betwixt Sir Tristram and La Beale Isoud, the which love never departed the days of their life."

But this love is fraught by social impropriety, the fact that they commit adultery is automatically a sin. However, if we view the love potion as the reason for their infidelity and excuse their moral failures, does that absolve their actions of any wrongdoing? And even if so, is manufactured passion truly the ideal of chivalric love that we should admire?
