EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting lithograph by Arthur Rackham, we are transported into the realm of fairy tales and magic. The image captures a moment of pure joy and grace as a pretty maiden skips through a hoop with the lightness and agility of a deer. Her flowing gown billows around her, adding to the ethereal atmosphere that surrounds her. Taken from Little Brother & Little Sister and Other Tales by the Brothers Grimm, published in 1917, this print embodies all the whimsy and wonderment found within these timeless stories. The scene depicts "The Goose-Girl at the Well" where courtly intrigue meets supernatural elements. As we gaze upon this illustration, we can almost hear the tinkling laughter of fairies dancing in delight at this young girl's magical performance. It is as if she possesses an otherworldly ability to defy gravity itself. Rackham's meticulous attention to detail brings every element to life - from the intricate patterns on her dress to each delicate strand of hair that escapes her crown. This artwork reminds us of our own childhood dreams filled with mythical creatures, brave princes, and beautiful queens. This lithograph is not just an illustration; it is an invitation for us to step into a world where anything is possible – where beauty reigns supreme and imagination knows no bounds.
