EDITORS COMMENTS
Drawn from the Wood" is a captivating and whimsical image by the talented British artist, Jack Gordge, created in 1927. This evocative print depicts a young, innocent woman in a flowing white dress, fleeing in terror from the clutches of a mischievous satyr or faun, as she darts through the enchanting depths of a woodland scene. The country side comes alive with the vibrant hues of autumn, as the golden leaves crunch underfoot and the sun casts dappled light through the trees. The 1920s were a time of great artistic experimentation and the sylvan motifs of Pan and his associated mythological creatures were particularly popular during this era. Numerous illustrations appeared in magazines, often featuring flapper-type girls being seduced or pursued by these enchanting beings. Gordge's work captures the essence of this trend with a delightful blend of humor and sensuality. The young woman's expression is one of fear and determination as she dashes through the woodland, her long, flowing hair streaming behind her. The satyr, with his horns, goat legs, and mischievous grin, is in hot pursuit, adding an element of playful chase to the scene. The overall effect is a charming and humorous depiction of the age-old tale of the pursuit of innocence by the forces of nature. Gordge's use of color and composition in "Drawn from the Wood" is truly masterful, creating a fantastical world that is both captivating and timeless. This beautiful print is a must-have for any collector of vintage art or those with an appreciation for the whimsical and enchanting world of the 1920s.
