EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Gossip about Fairies 37" from Mary Evans Picture Library, showcases a scene straight out of the rich tapestry of historical folk lore. At the heart of the composition is Sabrina, a water-nymph who graces the tranquil waters of the River Severn. Known for her prominent role in John Milton's epic poem "Comus," Sabrina is depicted here with her sisters, the Nereids, who share her deep love for water sports. The ethereal beauty of Sabrina and her companions is illuminated by the soft glow of a lantern, casting a gentle light on their playful antics. They are seen engaged in a delightful water slide, their laughter echoing through the still night. The Nereids, with their flowing tresses and graceful forms, mirror Sabrina's elegance and joy. Milton's "Comus," first published in 1634, is a masque that explores the themes of temptation, virtue, and the supernatural. In the poem, Sabrina is described as the "queen of the waters," who "loves to sport on the banks and in the boats." This image brings that description to life, capturing the essence of the nymph's watery realm and her frolicsome nature. The historical significance of Sabrina and the Nereids lies in their role as embodiments of the natural world and the enchantment it holds. Their presence in folklore and literature serves as a reminder of the enduring fascination with the magical and the mysterious. This print invites us to step into their world, if only for a moment, and to revel in the beauty and wonder of the natural world and the myths that surround it.
