EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Tales of Wonder - This attempt to describe the effects of the sublime and wonderful" we are transported back in time to witness a scene filled with intrigue and suspense. The illustration, published in 1802 by James Gillray, pays homage to M. G. Lewis Esq. , as it depicts women engrossed in listening to his Gothic novel "The Monk" from 1801. As our eyes wander across the image, we see a group of ladies gathered around, their faces illuminated by the flickering light of a single candle. Their expressions range from fascination to fear, captivated by every word that escapes their storyteller's lips. It is evident that Lewis's tale has ensnared their imaginations, transporting them into a world where horror and mystery reign supreme. Gillray masterfully captures the essence of this moment through his use of color lithography. The shadows cast on the walls create an eerie atmosphere that mirrors the unsettling nature of Lewis's narrative. Through this visual medium, we can almost hear gasps escaping from parted lips as each twist and turn unfolds before these avid listeners. This print serves as a testament not only to Gillray's artistic prowess but also to the enduring power of storytelling itself. It reminds us that even centuries later, tales woven with elements of wonder and terror continue to captivate audiences across generations.
