Percival at the Boisterous Water, N. C. Wyeth King Arthur Framed Print (1917)
Percival reaches the edge of violent water, the Grail somewhere beyond it, and pauses. This is not cowardice; it is the moment of deciding whether faith lies past the impossible part.
For someone standing at their own crossing, deciding whether to go on.
Ready to hang: an 8 × 10 in framed print in a white or black wood frame. At home in a study or hallway, or as a gift for someone at a turning point.
