About this work

This image depicts a knight on horseback, holding a long spear and a cup. The knight wears a helmet and armor, and the horse has a flowing mane and tail. A banner above the knight reads "THE END" in capital letters. The knight and horse are set against a plain background, with the knight's spear and the horse's reins standing out in detail. The overall mood of the image is one of triumph and celebration, with the knight's proud posture and the banner's declaration of "THE END" suggesting a sense of accomplishment. To learn more about the artist behind this image, look up Stephen Gooden (British, 1892–1955).
