Arthurian legend refers to the vast body of medieval story that focuses on King Arthur of Britain. The first references to him, as early as c. A.D. 600, indicate that he was historically a British leader in the Anglo-Saxon invasion, Geoffrey of Monmouth in 1137 names him the head of a magnificent court and master of Europe. This illustration, dating to the early 1900s, depicts the details in the full, later legend that has Arthur, illegitimate son of King Uther Pendragon, showing his royal blood by drawing a sword from a stone.
