EDITORS COMMENTS
The Marriage of Mrs. Reynard" is an enchanting illustration taken from a classic children's book published in 1909. This artwork was created by the renowned English illustrator, Edward Ardizzone, but it is most famously associated with the brilliant mind of Arthur Rackham. The image depicts a whimsical scene from a German fairytale, where an anthropomorphic fox named Mrs. Reynard is getting married in a beautiful, pastoral setting. Mrs. Reynard, dressed in an elegant, flowing gown, stands beside her groom, who is attired in red breeches and a tall hat. His curious appearance, with a pointed muzzle and expressive eyes, adds to the magical and fantastical atmosphere of the scene. The couple exchanges vows under a charming wooden arbor adorned with flowers, surrounded by a gathering of animals, including rabbits, hedgehogs, and birds. The backdrop of the illustration is a quaint windmill by the riverbank, adding a touch of history and nostalgia to the scene. The gentle breeze in the scene is captured through the billowing fabric of the animals' clothing and the waving branches of the trees. This exquisite illustration, with its delightful blend of fantasy, folklore, and Edwardian charm, continues to captivate audiences and inspire the imaginations of children and adults alike. The Marriage of Mrs. Reynard is a testament to the enduring power of children's literature and the magical world of fairytales. This stunning illustration, with its intricate details and captivating storytelling, is a must-have for any collection of children's literature or art. Whether you're a fan of fairytales, children's books, or simply appreciate the beauty of illustration, this image is sure to enchant and delight you.
