EDITORS COMMENTS
Jorinda and Joringel: The Old Woman's Return" is an enchanting illustration from a classic German fairytale, brought to life by the brilliant artistry of Edwardian illustrator, Arthur Rackham. The scene unfolds as Jorinda and Joringel, two young children, stand at the edge of a dark and mysterious wood, their faces filled with a mixture of fear and wonder. An old woman, disguised as a witch, emerges from the depths of the forest, her gnarled features and piercing eyes hinting at the magic and mystery that lies within. The children, who have been under the old woman's spell, look up at her in awe as she greets their protector, Zachiel. The old woman's voice is droning and ominous, yet there is a sense of familiarity and comfort in her presence. The children's attire, with their flowing dresses and suits, adds to the historical charm of the illustration, transporting us back to the 1900s and the enchanting world of fairytales. The water in the background of the illustration adds a sense of tranquility and reflection, contrasting the dark and spooky atmosphere of the forest. The intricate details in the illustration, from the textures of the children's clothing to the twisting branches of the trees, showcase Rackham's exceptional talent as an illustrator. This image is a testament to the enduring power of fairytales to transport us to magical worlds and ignite our imaginations. The illustration is a beautiful piece of historical art, and a must-have for any collector of children's literature or fairytale art. This illustration, titled "Jorinda and Joringel -- The old woman came back, and said in a droning voice: Greeting to thee, Zachiel!" was created by Arthur Rackham in 1909. It is a timeless masterpiece that continues to captivate and inspire audiences of all ages.
