In Possession
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and enchanting watercolor illustration by the renowned British artist, Alfred Bestall. This beautiful work of art, created in 1926, showcases three young girls sitting on the bank of a crystal-clear stream. They are intently focused on the water below, in the possession of a small crab that has momentarily emerged from its underwater hideaway. Bestall, born in 1892, was a prolific artist whose career spanned several decades. He is best known for his thirty-year tenure as the illustrator of Rupert Bear, a beloved children's comic strip. However, prior to this, Bestall gained recognition for his more than forty color illustrations for The Tatler, a prestigious British magazine. His artistic talents extended beyond Rupert Bear and The Tatler, as he also produced countless humorous line drawings and cartoon sketches. The girls in "In Possession" are dressed in fashionable clothing typical of the 1920s, adding a historical touch to the scene. The water is calm and still, allowing the girls to observe the crab up close. The crab, with its pincers clinging tightly to one of the girls' hands, seems both curious and cautious, as if it's considering whether to make a daring escape. Bestall's masterful use of color and detail in "In Possession" brings the scene to life, transporting the viewer to a simpler time. The girls' expressions of excitement and wonder, along with the crab's playful demeanor, create a delightful and memorable moment that is sure to capture the imagination of young and old alike. This beautiful illustration is a testament to Bestall's artistic talent and his ability to capture the essence of childhood joy and discovery.
