EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a whimsical moment straight out of a fairy tale. In the midst of chaos, a young boy named Taffy finds himself in his workshop surrounded by leather scraps and tools. But just as frustration begins to take hold, something magical happens. From under the discarded materials at his feet, a tiny being emerges with arms akimbo and mischievous laughter dancing on its lips. With wide-eyed astonishment, Taffy comes face to face with this enchanting creature—a goblin! This delightful illustration from Mrs Burton Harrison's Folk and Fairy Tales transports us into the realm of imagination where anything is possible. The talented artist Walter Crane brings every detail to life through his lithographic skills. As we gaze upon this scene, we can almost feel the warmth of Taffy's workshop and hear the rhythmic sound of his hammer against wood. The intricate engravings showcase not only Crane's artistic prowess but also depict an idyllic Welsh countryside backdrop that adds depth to this magical encounter. In this single frame frozen in time, we witness the fusion between reality and fantasy—where ordinary objects become extraordinary gateways into realms unknown. It reminds us that even amidst our daily struggles, there is always room for wonderment and unexpected encounters with magic if only we open our hearts to them.
