EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures the essence of surprise and unexpected encounters. Created by Kittelsen, Theodor Severin in 1893, this watercolor on paper artwork measures 27x22 cm and belongs to a private collection. The image depicts a serene riverbank scene where an anthropomorphic toad is engrossed in fishing. Little did the toad know that it was not worms biting its hook but a mischievous frog perched on top of the rod and tackle. A bird flying overhead seems equally shocked by this amusing sight. The painting is part of Kittelsen's series titled "Do the Animals Have a Soul" exploring the blurred boundaries between human and animal worlds. Through his whimsical illustrations, he invites viewers to contemplate deeper questions about nature and consciousness. With vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail, Kittelsen brings this comical encounter to life. The viewer can almost feel the shock on the faces of both creatures as their paths unexpectedly cross. This delightful illustration reminds us that even in our daily pursuits, surprises await us at every turn. It serves as a reminder that appearances can be deceiving, urging us to approach life with curiosity and open-mindedness. Photo credit: O. Vaering via Bridgeman Images
