EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting image captures a pivotal moment from the beloved German fairy tale, Schutzengel, or Guardian Angel. Dating back to circa 1904, the scene unfolds as a young girl, dressed in traditional German attire, sits at her window, her face etched with concern as she gazes out into the night. The darkness outside is illuminated by the soft glow of a lantern, casting an ethereal light upon the scene. Suddenly, a guardian angel, in the form of a radiant figure with wings, appears behind the girl. With a gentle touch, he places a protective hand on her shoulder, offering comfort and assurance. The girl's worried expression transforms into one of relief and gratitude as she turns to look at the angel. The artist, anonymous, masterfully captures the essence of the fairy tale, weaving together elements of magic, protection, and the power of faith. The use of soft colors and delicate brushstrokes adds to the dreamlike quality of the image, transporting us to a time and place where the supernatural was a part of everyday life. Schutzengel is a timeless tale that has been passed down through generations, and this print serves as a beautiful reminder of the enduring power of folklore and the belief in the presence of guardian angels watching over us. Whether displayed in a home or office, this print is sure to inspire a sense of wonder and delight, and to remind us of the comforting presence of guardian angels, watching over us in times of need.
