And Very Softly Hasten Down

EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Whimsical Journey into the Enchanted World of a Young Girl and Her Fairy Lake In this image from the Mary Evans Picture Library/Peter & Dawn Cope Collection, we are transported to a magical realm where dreams and reality intertwine. The year is 1922, and a young girl, dressed in a flowing white dress and a red shawl, gazes intently at the moonlit landscape before her. With a look of determination and excitement, she sets off on a quiet nighttime adventure, leaving the quaint, sleeping town behind. The girl's destination is the fairy lake, nestled on an island surrounded by tranquil waters. She clutches a small lantern in one hand and a bouquet of roses in the other, the petals of which seem to glow in the moonlight. The scene is reminiscent of the beloved children's story "The Flying Fairy" by E.H. Shepard, adding to the enchanting atmosphere. As she hastens down the path, her delicate wings, barely visible, flutter gently behind her. The magic of the moment is palpable, as if the viewer has been granted a glimpse into a secret world of wonder and delight. The miller's wheel, a common symbol of progress and industry, stands still in the background, contrasting the girl's journey into the realm of the fantastical. This image, titled "And Very Softly Hasten Down and Out Beyond the Sleeping Town to Find My Fairy Lake (The Island)," is a beautiful reminder of the power of imagination and the importance of seeking out the magic in our world. It invites us to embrace the whimsy and wonder of childhood and to hold onto the belief that, no matter where we are in life, there is always a little magic waiting to be discovered.
