The Wooing of La Belle
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Felix de Gray, a captivating sketch from the 1920s, transports us to a magical and enchanting world of love, transformation, and the unexpected. This exquisite work of art, created in 1926, depicts the pivotal moment in the timeless tale of "The Prince Charming who became a Monster." The scene unfolds in a dimly lit room, where the soft glow of candles and the warm light of a chandelier cast a romantic and mystical ambiance. The middle-aged prince, dressed in a richly colored medieval costume, gazes intently through a window at the beautiful La Belle, who is surrounded by a menagerie of animals. The prince, who has been cursed to transform into a beast, longs to break the spell and win her love. The room is adorned with a bare, wooden floor, adding to the rustic and authentic feel of the scene. The color palette is dominated by shades of blue and orange, creating a striking contrast that enhances the visual impact of the artwork. The woman, dressed in a flowing, elegant gown, appears unaware of the prince's presence, lost in her own thoughts as she plays with the animals. The animals, too, seem to sense the magic in the air, their eyes fixed on the prince with curiosity and anticipation. This sketch, with its gothic style and intriguing narrative, is a testament to the power of love and the transformative effects it can have on even the most unlikely of characters. The Wooing of La Belle is a beautiful and timeless tale that continues to captivate audiences, and this stunning artwork by Felix de Gray brings the story to life in a way that is both enchanting and unforgettable.
