EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting illustration, titled "The Two Pairs of Shoes," is taken from the Dutch fairy tale as published in "Once Upon a Time" no. 24, dated 26 July 1969. The tale, which has been passed down through generations, tells the story of a kind and generous cobbler who, despite his own poverty, gives away his only pair of shoes to two barefoot boys in need. In return, the boys' father, who is actually a disguised fairy godfather, rewards the cobbler with a magical pair of shoes that grant him endless wealth. The illustration beautifully captures the essence of this heartwarming tale. The cobbler, depicted in the foreground, sits at his workbench, surrounded by various shoe-making tools and half-finished pairs of clogs. His face is etched with concern as he contemplates the decision to give away his last pair of shoes. In the background, the two boys, their feet wrapped in rags, approach the cobbler with hopeful expressions. The use of warm colors and soft lighting adds to the magical and whimsical atmosphere of the scene. The illustration is a testament to the power of kindness and selflessness, and serves as a reminder that even the smallest acts of generosity can lead to great rewards. The intricate details of the cobbler's workshop and the boys' clothing add depth and texture to the image, making it a delight for the eyes and a cherished addition to any collection of fairy tale illustrations.
