EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "HARRIS: UNCLE REMUS, 1895. Brer Rabbit and Brer Fox" takes us back to the late 19th century, immersing us in the world of African American folklore. The pen-and-ink drawing by Arthur Burdett Frost was created for the second edition of Joel Chandler Harris' iconic folktale collection. The image transports us to a time when literature held immense power in shaping cultural narratives. It depicts two central characters from these beloved tales - Brer Rabbit and Brer Fox. As we gaze upon this illustration, we can almost hear the rustling leaves and feel the anticipation building as their timeless battle unfolds. Frost's intricate lines bring life to these legendary figures, showcasing his artistic prowess and attention to detail. The contrasting black and white tones highlight both the darkness lurking within Brer Fox's cunning eyes and the mischievous innocence radiating from Brer Rabbit's playful expression. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this print serves as a reminder of African American heritage and storytelling traditions that have been passed down through generations. Through Uncle Remus' enchanting tales, Harris shed light on a rich tapestry of experiences that had long been overlooked or marginalized. As we admire this piece, let us appreciate not only its artistic merit but also recognize its historical significance in preserving an important aspect of African American culture. This photograph invites us into a world where imagination intertwines with reality – where stories become windows into understanding our shared humanity across time periods and cultures alike.
