EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of folklore with this 19th-century image of Little Red Riding Hood (1860s) from Mary Evans Picture Library. In this charming scene, the young peasant girl, dressed in her iconic red hooded cloak and carrying a basket filled with provisions for her sick grandmother, approaches the cottage door with a sense of anticipation. But as she enters the dimly lit room, the scene takes an unexpected turn. The old woman, who should be lying in bed, is in fact the cunning wolf, disguised in grandma's clothes and propped up on pillows to deceive the unsuspecting Red Riding Hood. The wolf's sly grin reveals his true nature, as he waits for the perfect moment to strike. This historical photograph, taken in the 1800s, offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich tradition of folk tales and fairy stories that have captivated generations. The image is a testament to the enduring appeal of the Red Riding Hood story, which has been retold and reimagined in countless ways over the centuries. The intricate details of the scene, from the worn wooden floorboards to the faded floral wallpaper, transport us back in time to a simpler era. The costumes, with their authentic textures and textiles, add to the authenticity of the image, making it a must-have for anyone interested in history, folklore, or the art of storytelling. So take a moment to step into the magical world of Little Red Riding Hood and the wolf, and let your imagination run wild. This photograph is sure to inspire hours of wonder and delight.
