EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting image captures the whimsical beauty of the Queen of the May, a figure deeply rooted in both historical and folkloric traditions. The Queen of the May is often depicted as a radiant fairy or human woman dressed in a crown of daisies, gazing up at the sun with a joyful smile. This print, dating back to 1910, showcases the ethereal grace and timeless allure of this mystical figure. The origins of the Queen of the May can be traced back to ancient pagan rituals celebrating the arrival of spring and the rejuvenating power of the sun. Over time, these traditions evolved into elaborate May Day festivities, with the Queen of the May serving as the central figure. In some tales, she was believed to possess the power to bestow fertility and good fortune upon those who paid homage to her. The daisy, a humble yet beloved wildflower, holds a special significance in this mythology. Daisies were believed to have the power to ward off evil spirits and bring happiness, making them the perfect choice for the Queen's crown. In this image, the daisy represents the simple, unassuming beauty of nature, as well as the enduring power of tradition and the magic of the imagination. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported to a world of enchantment and wonder, where fairies, elves, and pixies dance among the daisies, basking in the warm embrace of the sun. This image invites us to embrace the magic of the past and the beauty of the present, reminding us that even in the midst of the mundane, there is always a touch of the fantastical waiting to be discovered.
