Fairy Folkard Ogre Perrault Striding Tale Thumbelina

EDITORS COMMENTS
Once upon a time in the enchanting world of Charles Perrault's fairy tales, a tiny heroine named Thumbelina (or Little Thumbling, as she was also known) embarked on a remarkable journey filled with wonder, danger, and romance. In this illustration by Charles Folkard, we find Thumbelina gazing up at the towering figure of an ogre, his massive strides carrying him effortlessly from hill to hill. The delicate beauty of Thumbelina and the ominous presence of the ogre create a striking contrast, highlighting the magical and terrifying elements of this classic tale. Folksard's illustration, created in 1923, brings to life the whimsy and imagination of Perrault's original story. Thumbelina, a tiny fairy girl no larger than a thumb, was born to a mother who was a fairy and a father who was a flower. She lived in a mushroom with her mother and her three elder brothers, but longed for adventure and love. When she was stolen away by a toad, she met a series of suitors, including a mole, a swallow, and a prince, before finally finding happiness with the prince. This beautiful and intricately detailed print, published by Peter Cope and Mary Evans, invites us to step into the magical world of Thumbelina and experience the wonder and excitement of her journey firsthand. With its rich colors and captivating storytelling, this print is a must-have for any fairy tale lover or collector.
