EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting illustration from the early 1900s, we see Rumpelstiltskin spinning straw into gold. The vibrant colors of the lithograph bring to life this beloved fairytale character and his magical abilities. Created by George Henry Thompson for Ernest Mister's publication "Once Upon a Time" this print captures the essence of a classic children's story. Rumpelstiltskin, depicted as a mischievous male figure, sits at his spinning wheel with utmost concentration. His nimble fingers work swiftly as he transforms ordinary straw into shimmering golden threads. The intricate details in the illustration showcase Thompson's skillful artistry and attention to storytelling. This scene is reminiscent of the pivotal moment in the tale when Rumpelstiltskin strikes a deal with a young girl who must guess his name within three days or forfeit her firstborn child. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to our childhood imaginations filled with wonder and excitement. The presence of children in the background adds an element of innocence and curiosity to the composition. They watch in awe as Rumpelstiltskin performs his extraordinary feat, captivated by both his mysterious nature and their own dreams of magic. This artwork serves as a reminder that fairy tales have an enduring power to ignite our imagination and transport us into fantastical realms where anything is possible.
