Brother Confectionery Danger Gretel Hansel Sister Sugar Sweet Sweets Welcomed Witch
EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting 20th century photograph captures the iconic moment from the beloved fairy tale, "Hansel and Gretel," as the siblings are welcomed by the witch. The scene is set at the entrance of her gingerbread house, a place filled with both sweet temptations and imminent danger. Hansel, the older brother, cautiously approaches the witch, his expression a mix of wariness and curiosity. Gretel, his younger sister, clings to his hand, her eyes wide with awe and apprehension. The witch, an old woman with a wizened face and a mischievous grin, extends a hand adorned with intricate, golden rings, offering the children a warm welcome. The background of the photograph is filled with an array of colorful confectionery, adding to the whimsical and magical atmosphere. Despite the potential danger lurking within, there is a sense of sweetness and innocence in the scene. The children, dressed in their best clothes, are on the cusp of a new adventure, one that will test their courage and determination. The witch, for all her wickedness, presents herself as a feiertag hostess, welcoming the children into her home with open arms. This photograph, from the Peter & Dawn Cope Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, is a beautiful and timeless depiction of the classic fairy tale, capturing the essence of the story and the magic of childhood imagination.
