EDITORS COMMENTS
This silhouette print depicts a classic German fairy tale scene known as "The Princess and the Swineherd." The image captures a pivotal moment in the story, where the princess, dressed in elegant attire and adorned with a crown, is seen bending down to pay the swineherd, a humble peasant, with an extravagant gesture of 100 kisses in exchange for a menial pot. The swineherd, with a proud and satisfied expression, holds the pot high, showcasing his hard-earned prize. The origins of this tale date back to the 18th century, with various versions emerging from different European cultures. The story follows a princess who, while out riding, becomes lost in the woods and encounters a swineherd. Impressed by his kindness and bravery, she falls in love with him, but their social differences hinder their union. To prove his worth, the swineherd performs a series of tasks for the princess, ultimately winning her heart and her hand in marriage. This beautiful silhouette print, created circa 1920, captures the essence of this timeless tale. The intricate details of the characters' clothing, expressions, and body language convey the story's themes of love, sacrifice, and the triumph of the heart over social class. The muted color palette and delicate shading add to the romantic and dreamlike atmosphere, making this print a cherished piece of historical art and a testament to the enduring power of fairy tales.
