EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historical belief held by some Germans in the 19th century that snowstorms were caused by Frau Holle's bedfeathers falling when her duvet was shaken. According to folklore, these bedfeathers were not responsible for the winter weather phenomena, but rather it was brought by the North Wind Fairy.
The image transports us back in time to a period where natural occurrences were often attributed to mythical beings and fantastical explanations. The intricate details of the illustration showcase a whimsical scene filled with swirling snowflakes and mystical creatures.
As we gaze upon this piece from Mary Evans Picture Library, we are reminded of how our understanding of weather patterns has evolved over centuries. What once seemed like magic or superstition is now explained through scientific principles and meteorological studies.
Despite knowing the true causes behind snowstorms today, there is still something enchanting about embracing these old legends and stories passed down through generations. This print serves as a beautiful reminder of our rich cultural history and the enduring power of imagination.
