EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration captures a poignant moment from the classic tale of Cinderella. In this 19th-century print, we see Cinderella toiling away in his kitchen, surrounded by an array of metal crockery and utensils. The anonymous artist skillfully portrays the misery and poverty that Cinderella endures as he carries out his domestic chores. The engraving showcases the harsh reality faced by this imaginary character created by Charles Perrault, a renowned French writer. Through this artwork, we witness the daily cleanup tasks that Cinderella must undertake in his meager surroundings. The use of copper tones adds depth to the image, emphasizing both the humble nature of Cinderella's existence and the enduring stain of domestic servitude. This portrayal serves as a reminder of the social inequalities prevalent during Perrault's time. Although created over two centuries ago, this illustration continues to resonate with audiences today. It evokes empathy for those who face adversity and struggle against their circumstances. The delicate details captured by Stefano Bianchetti allow us to immerse ourselves in this folktale world while contemplating themes such as resilience and hope amidst hardship. Displayed within a private collection, this timeless piece invites viewers to reflect on both historical context and universal human experiences.
