EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "She rose as lightly as a bubble to the surface of the water" by Jean Edouard Dargent, also known as Yan, transports us into the enchanting world of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales. The delicate image depicts a pivotal moment from "The Little Mermaid" where our protagonist emerges gracefully from beneath the waves. With great skill and attention to detail, Dargent captures the ethereal beauty of this scene. As if defying gravity itself, the mermaid ascends effortlessly towards sunlight that dances on the water's surface. Her flowing hair and shimmering tail create an aura of magic and mystery. The artist's choice to depict her rise as light as a bubble adds another layer of whimsy to this already fantastical composition. It symbolizes not only her physical ascent but also her journey towards self-discovery and longing for freedom. This particular print is part of a private collection, preserving its historical significance and artistic value. It was originally created for an edition of Andersen's Fairy Tales translated by Mrs H B Paull in 1890, published by Frederick Warne. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, we are reminded once again why these timeless stories continue to captivate audiences across generations. They transport us beyond reality into realms filled with wonderment and possibility – just like bubbles rising gently to touch the surface of water.
