EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the moment of an extraordinary encounter between young Guillemette Babin and the mythical figure of Satan, as depicted in a 16th-century French folktale. The photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to an age of enchantment and wonder, where the boundaries between reality and the paranormal were blurred. Guillemette, a young girl dressed in simple clothing, is carried through the dense forest by a powerful wolf. The wolf, with piercing eyes and an air of determination, seems to know exactly where it is headed. In the background, the forest is alive with the sounds and sights of nature, adding to the sense of mystery and intrigue. Upon reaching their destination, the wolf transforms into an old hag, her wrinkled face and gnarled features a stark contrast to her former form. She presents Guillemette to Satan, who sits on a throne, his dark and menacing presence radiating from the image. The hag assures the Devil that the young girl will serve him faithfully for the rest of her life. This historical photograph, circa 1550, tells the chilling tale of Guillemette Babin and her encounter with the Devil. The legend of Guillemette and the Wolf is just one of many fascinating stories from the rich tapestry of European folklore, a time when belief in witchcraft and the supernatural was deeply ingrained in the collective consciousness. Despite the passage of centuries, the story continues to captivate and intrigue us, a testament to the enduring power of myth and legend.
