EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the early 1900s takes us back to the enchanting world of Peter Pan, as imagined by JM Barrie. The transfer-printed glass slide is part of a remarkable boxed set featuring twenty-four scenes from this timeless tale. Amongst these scenes, we find ourselves face to face with a fearsome crocodile. The vivid colors and intricate details bring this creature to life, showcasing its powerful presence. With jaws wide open and sharp teeth on display, the crocodile seems ready to pounce on anyone who dares cross its path. Its scaly skin glistens under the lantern light, adding an air of mystery and danger. As we gaze at this image, we are reminded of Captain Hook's constant fear of this relentless predator. In Barrie's story, it was the ticking clock swallowed by the crocodile that served as a haunting reminder for Captain Hook - a symbol of his impending doom. This print not only captures our attention but also transports us into a world where adventure and imagination collide. It serves as a testament to Sir James Matthew Barrie's genius in creating characters that have captivated audiences for over a century. With each glance at this mesmerizing piece, we can't help but feel drawn into Peter Pan's magical universe - where pirates roam free and daring escapades await those brave enough to join them.
