EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving from a c1860 edition of the Perrault fairy tale, illustrated by the renowned Gustave Doré, we are transported into the enchanting world of Little Red Riding Hood. The scene depicts a pivotal moment in the story where danger lurks beneath an innocent facade. A young blonde girl, known as Little Red Riding Hood, stands at the center of attention. Clad in her iconic red hooded cape, she exudes both innocence and vulnerability. Unbeknownst to her, concealed behind a seemingly harmless middle-aged woman's disguise is none other than the big bad wolf himself. Gustave Doré skillfully captures this suspenseful encounter through his intricate engravings. Every detail meticulously etched onto paper brings to life the deceptive nature of this classic fairy tale. The viewer can almost feel their heart race as they witness Little Red Riding Hood unknowingly stepping closer to danger. This illustration serves as a reminder that appearances can be deceiving and that one must always remain vigilant against hidden threats. It also showcases Doré's mastery in capturing emotion and storytelling through art. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, we are reminded of the timeless allure and power literature holds over our imaginations. This piece not only pays homage to Charles Perrault's beloved French fairy tale but also celebrates Gustave Doré's immense talent for bringing stories to life through his remarkable illustrations.
