EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fell to licking a file, 1930s" takes us back in time to the enchanting world of fairy tales and fables. Created by Charles Robinson, a renowned English artist from the early 20th century, this colour lithograph is part of a private collection. The image portrays an intriguing scene where a snake can be seen curiously licking a file. The vibrant colours used in this artwork add depth and life to the characters depicted. This whimsical composition invites viewers into a realm where animals possess human-like qualities, blurring the lines between reality and fantasy. Robinson's work often drew inspiration from folklore and legends, capturing their essence through his unique artistic style. In this particular piece, he skillfully combines elements of nature with anthropomorphic creatures to create an engaging narrative that sparks curiosity and imagination. Originally published in "The Big Book of Fables" by Blackie & Son Limited during the 1930s, this print showcases Robinson's ability to bring stories to life through his illustrations. As we gaze upon this timeless artwork today, it serves as a reminder of the enduring power that fairy tales hold over our collective consciousness. With its rich symbolism and attention to detail, "Fell to licking a file" transports us into an extraordinary world where snakes become protagonists in their own right – reminding us that even in unexpected places or situations, magic can always be found if we are open to seeing it.
