EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting print, titled "There she sat, and would have remained sitting a long time" we are transported into the heart of a magical woodland. A pretty maiden, exuding an air of timeless beauty, is seated by a tranquil pool. The scene seems straight out of a fairy tale or myth, as if plucked from the pages of a cherished children's book. The maiden sits serenely, lost in her own thoughts and captivated by the peacefulness that surrounds her. One can almost feel the stillness in the air as she immerses herself in this idyllic setting. The artist Arthur Rackham has masterfully captured not only her physical presence but also the ethereal essence that emanates from within. However, just as it appears that she will remain there undisturbed for eternity, nature intervenes with its gentle rustling and cracking sounds. It is as if Little Brother & Little Sister themselves have arrived to awaken our daydreaming protagonist from her reverie. This lithograph invites us to delve into our imagination and embark on an adventure filled with wonderment and possibility. It serves as a reminder that even in moments of tranquility and solitude, unexpected surprises may await us just beyond our peripheral vision. As we gaze upon this exquisite artwork from Bridgeman Images' Private Collection, let us allow ourselves to be transported back to childhood days when fairy tales held endless fascination – reminding us that magic can be found even in the simplest moments spent amidst nature
