EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration by Arthur Szyk for Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale "Snow Queen" we are transported into a world of mysticism and enchantment. The image depicts a pivotal moment in the story, where two children discover an extraordinary mirror with dark powers. They run about excitedly, exploring every corner of their surroundings, holding the mirror close to them. Szyk's intricate details bring this scene to life; you can almost feel the magic emanating from the mirror. The Danish countryside serves as a backdrop, adding an air of authenticity to this mystical encounter. As we gaze at the drawing, we cannot help but be drawn into its allure. The mirror itself is no ordinary looking glass; it possesses an occult quality that reveals hidden truths and exposes ugliness within those who dare look upon it. It is said that evil demons and goblins lurk within its depths, ready to ensnare unsuspecting souls. This artwork beautifully captures both the innocence of childhood curiosity and the dangers that lie in wait when one delves too deeply into forbidden realms. Szyk's skillful technique transports us back to 19th-century Denmark while simultaneously immersing us in a timeless tale filled with wonder and trepidation. As we admire this print from The Granger Collection, New York / The Granger Collection, let us remember not only Andersen's masterful storytelling but also Szyk's ability to breathe life into his words through his evocative illustrations.
