EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "It came down as a shower of sparks, scene from The Story of the Firefly in Children's Stories from Rumanian Legends" transports us into the enchanting world of Romanian folklore. Captured by Charles Edmund Brock in 1921, this vibrant colour lithograph depicts a mesmerizing nocturnal scene. In this image, we find ourselves under a starry sky, gazing at an ethereal sight. A flock of sheep peacefully grazes while their shepherd watches over them with awe and wonder. Suddenly, like magic descending from above, fireflies illuminate the darkness with their luminous glow. They cascade down like a radiant shower of sparks, casting an otherworldly light on the meadow below. The atmosphere is filled with a sense of tranquility and mystery as these tiny creatures create an enchanting vision straight out of a fairytale. The combination of vivid colours and intricate details brings to life the rich tapestry of Romanian legends that have been passed down through generations. Through this artwork, we are reminded not only of the beauty found in nature but also how folklore can ignite our imagination and transport us to realms beyond our own reality. It serves as a reminder that even amidst darkness, there is always something magical waiting to be discovered if we take the time to look up at the night sky and let our imaginations soar alongside these flickering stars - both real and mythical alike.
