EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the beloved novel "The Secret Garden" by Frances Hodgson Burnett. Titled ""It seemed scarcely bearable to leave such delightfulness" it depicts Mary and Dickon in the enchanting locked garden, accompanied by their animal friends Captain the fox, Soot the crow, and Nut and Shell, two squirrels. The illustration is taken from the first American edition of the book published in 1911, featuring stunning artwork by Maria Louise Kirk. In this early twentieth-century masterpiece, friendship takes center stage as these young characters form a bond amidst nature's wonders. The image showcases their deep connection with wildlife animals and highlights themes of camaraderie and amitie. As they explore this hidden sanctuary together, their joy radiates through every color-filled frame. The presence of key symbolizes unlocking secrets while seashells evoke a sense of mystery and wonderment. Crows soar above them like guardians of this magical realm, adding an element of intrigue to the composition. This photograph beautifully encapsulates not only the essence of "The Secret Garden" but also captures a snapshot of life in early twentieth-century America. Brought to us by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, this remarkable piece invites viewers into a world where friendships blossom against all odds—a timeless reminder that even in moments when parting seems unbearable, true delight can be found within cherished connections.
