Illustrated by Arthur Rackham in the 19th century, this artwork beautifully captures a pivotal moment in the story. In the foreground, we see an old woman seated in a rowboat, her weathered face expressing determination as she rows through the calm waters.

From the intricate patterns on Gerda's dress to the ripples forming around the boat, Rackham masterfully brings Andersen's words to life visually. As viewers, we are left wondering about what lies ahead for this mysterious old woman. Will she encounter danger or find solace amidst her journey? This image serves as an invitation for us to delve deeper into Andersen's enchanting world and explore themes of resilience and bravery that resonate with readers even today.
