EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the iconic characters of Ichabod Crane and Katrin Van Tassel in a mesmerizing moment. Created by George Henry Boughton in 1893, this watercolor on paper artwork brings to life the beloved tale of "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" by Washington Irving. In this scene, we see Ichabod Crane, the lanky and superstitious schoolteacher, alongside Katrin Van Tassel, the beautiful daughter of a wealthy farmer. The delicate brushstrokes beautifully depict their personalities - Ichabod's nervous demeanor contrasting with Katrin's serene presence. As they stand together against a rustic backdrop, one can almost feel the eerie atmosphere that surrounds them. The artist skillfully captures the essence of Irving's story through his attention to detail and use of color. With its small size measuring 29.2x19.1 cm, this print is an exquisite addition to any art collection or literary enthusiast's home. Displaying it proudly will transport viewers into the enchanting world created by Irving over two centuries ago. Preserved in the Collection of the New-York Historical Society in USA, this piece serves as a timeless reminder of American folklore and storytelling at its finest. Let yourself be captivated by this charming portrayal that continues to inspire imaginations today.
