Asleep Cloak Composite Dwarf Dwarfs Dwarves Ermine Fairy Legend Magic Roots Sleep Sleeping Spell
EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting illustration, titled "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," is a captivating work of art by the early 20th century Czech artist, Kupka. The composition is a stunning retelling of the classic fairy tale, where the pure and innocent Snow White is under the wicked Queen's curse, forced to flee into the forest and seek refuge with the seven dwarfs. The illustration showcases Snow White, clad in a red cloak, lying peacefully in the forest, surrounded by the seven dwarfs, each with their distinctive features and ermine capes. The scene is set against a backdrop of an ancient, gnarled tree, its roots twisting and turning, as if holding the story together. The water at the base of the tree adds a sense of tranquility and serenity to the scene. The Queen, with her menacing expression and regal attire, is shown in the foreground, her hand reaching out to apply the poisoned apple to Snow White's lips. The spell cast by the wicked queen has put Snow White into a deep sleep, her face pale and peaceful. The magic of this illustration lies in its ability to transport us to a time when fairy tales were a source of wonder and enchantment. The historical significance of this work is evident in its intricate details and the masterful use of color and composition. The legend of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs has been passed down through generations, and this illustration is a beautiful testament to the enduring power of storytelling.
