Townsfolk queuing to enter the town hall
The townsfolk of Hamelin in Lower Saxony, Germany, arriving at the Town Hall to discuss how to rid the town of rats which were plaguing it in 1284. The event inspired the legend of the Pied Piper who removed the rats by playing his musical instrument but when the townsfolk refused to pay him, he lured away most of their children. From " The Pied Piper of Hamelin" by Robert Browning, illustrated by Kate Greenaway, published by George Routledge & Sons, London, Glasgow, Manchester and New York in 1888

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the year 1284, capturing a significant moment in history. The image showcases a bustling scene outside the Town Hall of Hamelin, located in Lower Saxony, Germany. A long queue of townsfolk eagerly awaits entry into the grand building, their faces filled with anticipation and concern. The reason for this gathering is none other than the infamous rat infestation that plagued Hamelin during that era. This event would later inspire the timeless legend of the Pied Piper. As we delve deeper into history, we learn that it was this very town hall meeting where discussions were held on how to rid their beloved town of these pesky creatures. Intriguingly illustrated by Kate Greenaway and published by George Routledge & Sons in 1888, this print serves as a visual testament to Robert Browning's famous poem "The Pied Piper of Hamelin". It captures not only the essence of an ancient tale but also offers insight into societal dynamics at that time. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from whitemay's collection at Fine Art Storehouse, our imagination runs wild with thoughts about what transpired within those walls after this photograph was taken. It reminds us once again how art has an incredible power to transport us through time and connect us with stories passed down through generations.
