EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration by Vimar (1851-1916) for the renowned tale of "The Little Red Riding Hood" by Charles Perrault (1628-1703), a prominent French writer. The artwork, part of a private collection, beautifully captures the essence of this beloved folktale. In this enchanting scene, we witness the fateful encounter between the innocent Little Red Riding Hood and the cunning Wolf. Vimar's skillful drawing transports us to 17th century France, immersing us in a world where animals possess human-like qualities and adventures unfold in magical forests. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he portrays both characters with great precision. The child's vulnerability is palpable as she stands before the imposing figure of the wolf, while his sly expression hints at his true intentions. This timeless image serves as a testament to Perrault's enduring literary legacy and continues to captivate audiences across generations. Through this artful composition, Vimar masterfully brings together elements of French literature and visual arts from the Seicento period. The delicate strokes and vibrant colors transport us back in time to experience firsthand the charm and allure of 17th century Europe. This remarkable piece not only celebrates two iconic figures from children's literature but also pays homage to their creators – Charles Perrault and Auguste Vimar – who have left an indelible mark on literary history through their works of art.
