EDITORS COMMENTS
This frontispiece illustration takes us back in time to the enchanting world of English history. The artist, Howard Davie, brings to life the stories of royal children with his skillful use of color lithography. Published in 1920 by Raphael Tuck, this print is a true gem from a bygone era. In the center of the image sits a young girl engrossed in her reading. Her delicate features and medieval costume transport us to a different time and place. Beside her stands a boy, equally captivated by the tale unfolding before them. They are surrounded by an air of mystery and adventure. A wolfskin rug lies beneath their feet, adding an element of comfort and warmth to their storytelling session. A veil delicately drapes over the girl's head, hinting at her noble lineage. The composition exudes nostalgia as it captures these two children lost in their own little world of imagination and wonderment. It reminds us that stories have always been an integral part of childhood, transcending time and generations. This remarkable piece invites viewers to step into its narrative realm where tales come alive through words on paper. It serves as a testament to the power of storytelling and its ability to transport us beyond our current reality. Displayed proudly in any collection or home setting, this print is not just an exquisite work of art but also a gateway into another era filled with magic and intrigue.
