EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from an 1867 edition of Charles Perrault's fairy tale "Bluebeard" transports us into a world of mystery and intrigue. Illustrated by the renowned Gustave Doré, this print depicts a pivotal moment in the story as we witness the brothers of Bluebeard's wife embarking on a daring journey to his foreboding castle. The scene is set under the cover of night, with a moonlit sky casting an eerie glow upon the landscape. The equestrian riders gallop through a desolate countryside, their determined expressions reflecting both bravery and trepidation. Each horseman exudes strength and determination as they ride towards their sister's uncertain fate. The detailed engraving showcases Doré's exceptional talent for capturing emotion and atmosphere. From the intricate rendering of each horse to the haunting silhouette of Bluebeard's castle looming in the distance, every element adds depth to this evocative illustration. As viewers, we are drawn into this timeless tale that explores themes of curiosity, trust, and consequence. It serves as a reminder that even amidst darkness and danger, familial bonds can inspire acts of courage and sacrifice. This remarkable print from The Granger Collection not only captures our imagination but also pays homage to two great artists – Charles Perrault for his enchanting storytelling abilities and Gustave Doré for his masterful illustrations that continue to captivate audiences over centuries.
