EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Black. Three Bears" and created by renowned English illustrator Charles Folkard around 1923, presents a unique and whimsical interpretation of the classic children's tale "Goldilocks and the Three Bears." In this rendition, the three bears - Papa Bear, Mama Bear, and Baby Bear - are depicted as elegant, anthropomorphic black animals, adding an intriguing twist to the familiar story. Charles Folkard (1877-1960) was a prolific and talented illustrator, known for his distinctive style that combined the traditions of Japanese woodblock prints and Art Nouveau. His works were often characterized by their rich colors, intricate patterns, and imaginative storytelling. This particular illustration showcases Folkard's mastery of line and form, as well as his ability to imbue his subjects with personality and charm. The setting of the image is a cozy, forested cabin, with the bears' belongings and furniture arranged invitingly within. Goldilocks, a small, blonde figure, can be seen peeking curiously into the scene, her expression a mix of curiosity and mischief. The bears' reactions to her presence are not depicted, leaving the viewer to imagine their response. This charming and historical print offers a delightful glimpse into the rich artistic legacy of Charles Folkard and the enduring appeal of the classic children's tale "Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
