EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white illustration by Arthur Rackham transports us into the enchanting world of Henrik Ibsen's "Peer Gynt". The scene depicted is a pivotal moment in the drama, where Peer finds himself standing before the imposing King of the Trolls. Rackham's artistic prowess shines through as he skillfully captures the essence of this Norwegian fairy tale. The attention to detail in his rendering brings to life the grotesque features of both Peer and the Troll King, emphasizing their contrasting appearances. While Peer appears small and vulnerable, with a look of trepidation on his face, the Troll King exudes power and menace with his hulking figure and menacing gaze. The use of shading adds depth to this 20th-century illustration, creating an atmosphere that is simultaneously eerie and mesmerizing. Rackham's mastery lies not only in his ability to depict fantastical creatures but also in conveying emotions through their expressions. As we peer into this print, we are reminded of Ibsen's exploration of human nature and identity within a surreal landscape. It serves as a visual reminder that sometimes our greatest adversaries may not be what they seem at first glance. Arthur Rackham's contribution to this edition elevates "Peer Gynt" beyond words alone, allowing readers to immerse themselves fully in its magical realm.
