EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the incredible influence of literature on everyday life. In this enchanting scene, we are transported to a quaint village where certain biscuit-makers have paid homage to the beloved character Rip Van Winkle by imprinting his likeness on their delectable new-year cakes. The image, taken from Arthur Rackham's 1910 publication of Washington Irving's renowned tale, captures the essence of a bygone era. The picturesque setting depicts a bustling street scene adorned with charming houses and cobblestone roads. A warmly dressed little girl stands at the center, her bonnet and cape adding an air of innocence and nostalgia to the composition. With a basket in hand, she eagerly awaits her turn at the local bakery. This delightful snapshot not only highlights the artistic talents of Rackham but also emphasizes how stories can transcend time and inspire creativity in unexpected ways. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, it is evident that Rip Van Winkle has become more than just a fictional character; he has become an emblematic figure ingrained in popular culture. Through this visual masterpiece, we are reminded of the enduring power of literature to shape our world beyond its pages. It serves as a testament to how even something as simple as biscuits can carry within them tales that captivate hearts for generations to come.
