Charles Ricketts, a renowned British artist, designer, and typographer, is celebrated for his contributions to the visual and literary arts during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Among his notable works are the "Two Illustrations For The Kingis Quair," which exemplify his distinctive artistic style and his deep engagement with literary texts. "The Kingis Quair," or "The King's Book," is a 15th-century Scottish poem attributed to King James I of Scotland. The poem, written in the form of a dream vision, recounts the king's reflections on his life, his captivity in England, and his love for Lady Joan Beaufort, whom he eventually married.

Ricketts' illustrations for this medieval poem are a testament to his ability to blend historical reverence with innovative artistic techniques. His work often drew upon the aesthetics of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and the Arts and Crafts Movement, both of which emphasized intricate detail, rich symbolism, and a return to the craftsmanship of the medieval period. In creating the illustrations for "The Kingis Quair," Ricketts employed a meticulous approach, using fine lines and elaborate compositions to capture the poem's romantic and introspective qualities.

The illustrations are characterized by their delicate interplay of light and shadow, as well as their intricate patterns and textures, which evoke the manuscript illuminations of the medieval era. Ricketts' attention to detail and his ability to convey the emotional depth of the poem's narrative make these illustrations a significant contribution to the visual interpretation of literary works. Through his artistry, Ricketts not only paid homage to the historical and cultural context of "The Kingis Quair" but also brought a modern sensibility to its visual representation, bridging the gap between past and present in a manner that continues to resonate with audiences today.
