Through Aleksandr Puškin’s writing and Ivan Bilibin’s illustrations, Roi du Lac explores the world of Russian fairy tales- archetype of the epic poems from Slav tradition.

The prints on the textiles, all drawn by hand by Marco Kinloch, are freely inspired by the firebird, the horses and knights, the magic animals and the bizarre characters that populate theses tales.

The image of the man who struggles against the dark, savage side of himself so that the supreme good may win, is celebrated through the use of precious materials and a sophisticated combination of designs and colours.
