EDITORS COMMENTS
Flying Robert: An Unforgettable Tale of Whimsy and Woe from the Pages of Struwwelpeter Amidst the vibrant hues of an 1847 rain-soaked street, a small figure named Robert, clad in a blue coat and red trousers, bravely holds aloft his cherished red umbrella. The relentless wind, however, proves to be an unyielding adversary, snatching the umbrella from Robert's grasp and carrying him away. This scene is taken from the iconic children's book, Struwwelpeter, authored by German writer and artist, Heinrich Hoffmann. First published in 1845, Struwwelpeter, also known as The Story of Flying Robert in English-speaking countries, has captivated generations of readers with its whimsical illustrations and morality tales. The book, which features Robert among other unruly children who meet untimely ends due to their misbehavior, was a groundbreaking work in children's literature, paving the way for the development of the modern picture book. In this image, Hoffmann masterfully captures the essence of the unpredictable and sometimes perilous world of childhood, as well as the power of the elements. The red umbrella, a symbol of protection and safety, is snatched away, leaving Robert vulnerable to the merciless wind and rain. The scene is a poignant reminder of the fragility of childhood and the importance of being mindful of one's actions. This photograph, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the rich history of children's literature and the enduring allure of Struwwelpeter. The image, with its intricate details and vivid colors, invites us to step back in time and rediscover the magic and wonder of this classic tale.
