EDITORS COMMENTS
Puss in Boots," an enchanting and timeless folktale, comes to life in this 1899 illustration. Anonymous in origin, this charming print showcases the cunning and mischievous feline, donning his distinctive tall boots and carrying a sack over his back. The story of Puss in Boots originated in Spain and was first published in France in the late 17th century. Over the centuries, it has been retold and adapted in various forms, including literature, opera, and film. The tale follows the adventures of a pauper's cat who, through a series of clever schemes and deceptions, manages to secure wealth and prosperity for his master. This illustration captures the essence of the character's mischievous nature, as he confidently strides forward with a knowing smirk on his face. The intricate details of his boots and the texture of his fur are brought to life through the skillful use of cross-hatching and shading. The muted colors and delicate lines of the print add to its antique charm, transporting us back in time to an era of enchanting folktales and magical creatures. The anonymity of the artist only adds to the mystery and allure of this beautiful print. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power of storytelling and the timeless appeal of a clever and cunning feline. This print is not only a beautiful addition to any collection of classic literature or folktales, but also a testament to the enduring power of imagination and the magic of a good story.
