EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration from the 19th century by Bertall, we see a prince engaged in conversation with an old woman who sits on the floor cutting grass with a serpe. The scene is taken from the tale of the brothers Grimm, "the goose keeper near the fountain", and captures a moment of unexpected connection between two individuals from different walks of life. The prince's regal attire contrasts sharply with the humble surroundings of the old woman, yet there is a sense of mutual respect and understanding between them. The intricate details in Bertall's artwork bring to life the rich storytelling tradition of Grimm's fairy tales, where themes of kindness, compassion, and humility are often explored. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded that true wisdom knows no age or social status. The old woman may be cutting grass with a simple tool, but her presence commands attention and respect. And the prince, despite his royal upbringing, listens intently to her words as if recognizing that there is much to learn from those who have lived longer lives. This print serves as a timeless reminder that meaningful connections can be found in unexpected places, and that every individual has something valuable to offer regardless of their station in life.
