EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting illustration, titled "Water Babies: An Illustration to the Song of the River," is a beautiful depiction of a fairy mother and her baby son at the water's edge, published by the Mary Evans Picture Library from Mary Evans Prints Online in 1909. The illustration is based on the classic children's novel "The Water-Babies, A Fairy Tale for a Land Baby" by Charles Kingsley, first published in 1863. The image captures the magical moment as the fairy mother gently cradles her child by the shore, with the soothing waters of the river lapping at their feet. The mother's ethereal wings are spread behind her, and she gazes lovingly at her son as he reaches out to touch the water. A colorful array of aquatic life surrounds them, including playful fish, seaweed, and other underwater creatures. The scene is reminiscent of the song from the book, "Play by me, bathe in me, mother and child," which encourages the bond between mother and child and the joy of nature. This illustration is a testament to the enduring appeal of the Water-Babies story and the magical world of fairies and nature that captured the imagination of generations. The illustration, created in 1909 by an unknown artist, is a historical treasure that transports us to a time when the wonders of nature and the magical world of fairies were a source of endless fascination and delight. It is a beautiful reminder of the timeless connection between mothers and their children, the healing power of nature, and the importance of cherishing the moments of joy and wonder in life.
