EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating black and white illustration by W Heath Robinson that transports us into the enchanting world of Hans Christian Andersen's Elfin-Mount. Set against an outdoor backdrop, this artwork captures a pivotal moment in the fairy tale where two figures stand at the center of attention. A bearded man, dressed in medieval attire complete with a helmet, extends his hand towards a young girl who curtseys before him. Their gestures symbolize an impending union as they embark on their journey towards marriage. The artist's meticulous line drawing brings out every intricate detail of their costumes and expressions. The monochrome palette adds depth to the scene while emphasizing the timeless quality of this 20th-century piece. As we delve into this print, we are reminded of the power of literature and art to transport us to different realms filled with magic and wonder. This print is part of Hans Andersen's Fairy Tales collection published by Hodder and Stoughton Limited for Boots Pure Drug Co. Ltd in London during the 1930s. It serves as a testament to William Heath Robinson's artistic prowess and his ability to bring beloved stories to life through his illustrations. As we gaze upon "I Will Have Thee Myself To Wife" we are invited to immerse ourselves in its narrative, allowing our imagination to roam freely within its pages like children discovering new worlds within an old book.
