Under the Window
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating collection of illustrations by the renowned Victorian artist, Kate Greenaway, first published in 1879. This charming book, filled with whimsy and delight, invites readers to step into a world of innocence and beauty. The contents page of "Under the Window" serves as an enchanting introduction to the stories and images that lie ahead. In this illustration, a young girl is seated by an open window, her parasol propped up beside her. Her curious gaze is fixed on the water below, where a small boat gently drifts along. The tranquil scene is bathed in soft light, with the sun casting dappled shadows on the wall behind the girl. Greenaway's masterful use of color and detail is on full display in this illustration. The girl's dress is a vibrant shade of blue, contrasting beautifully with the muted tones of the wall and the water. The intricate patterns on her parasol and the delicate folds of her skirt add texture and depth to the image. The Victorian era comes alive in this illustration, with its ornate wallpaper, elegant parasol, and the classic boat on the water. The sense of nostalgia and longing that permeates the image is heightened by the title of the book, which invites us to look "Under the Window" and explore the stories and characters that await. This illustration is a testament to Greenaway's ability to capture the essence of childhood and the beauty of the natural world. It is a reminder of the simple pleasures of a bygone era, and a invitation to lose ourselves in the pages of a beautiful book. "Under the Window" is a must-read for anyone who appreciates the art of illustration and the magic of storytelling. This collection of illustrations is a treasure trove of Victorian charm and innocence, and a reminder of the power of the written word to transport us to another time and place.
