EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration by Edmund Dulac for "The Nightingale" from Stories From Hans Andersen, published in 1938, we are transported to a scene filled with wonder and curiosity. The image depicts a gentleman-in-waiting standing on a bridge, his eyes fixed on something that has clearly taken him by surprise. As he gazes at the sight before him, he exclaims, "Is it possible? I should never have thought it was like that. How common it looks! Seeing so many grand people must have frightened all its colors away". His astonishment is palpable as he realizes that appearances can be deceiving. The composition of the illustration is exquisite - vibrant colors and intricate details bring life to every element. A little girl stands beside the gentleman-in-waiting, holding a lantern and gazing up at him with wide-eyed innocence. In the background, we catch glimpses of a Chinese kitchen and other characters who seem equally captivated by what they see. This enchanting artwork captures the essence of an Asian fairy tale - bridging cultures through its timeless appeal. It reminds us that beauty can be found in unexpected places and teaches us not to judge solely based on outward appearances. Hilary Jane Morgan's skillful description transports us into this magical world where classic stories come alive through Dulac's masterful illustrations.
