EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Instantly they lay still all turned into stone" transports us into the enchanting world of Little Brother & Little Sister and Other Tales by the Brothers Grimm. Created by Arthur Rackham in 1917, this lithograph captures a pivotal moment in the story. In this scene, we witness a mesmerizing transformation brought about by magic. The protagonists, two siblings known as Little Brother and Little Sister, find themselves confronted with danger in the form of a menacing wolf. As if frozen in time, their bodies turn to stone under the spell's influence. The composition is rich with symbolism and evokes an air of mystery. The gnarled tree roots intertwine around them like protective barriers while a huntsman observes from afar. Various woodland creatures - including bears, foxes, hares - stand witness to this extraordinary event. Rackham's intricate detailing brings these mythical beings to life on paper. Each stroke of his pen breathes vitality into every animal depicted within this fairy tale realm. Through his masterful engraving technique, he invites us to delve deeper into the narrative and explore our own imagination. This remarkable illustration serves as a reminder that even amidst adversity and perilous encounters, there is always room for magic and wonderment within our lives – just waiting to be discovered through timeless tales such as those crafted by the Brothers Grimm.
