EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting print titled "Cinderella in the Chimney Corner" we are transported into the magical world of one of our most beloved fairy tales. Captured by the talented artist John Absolon, this illustration comes from "The Home Treasury of Old Story Books" published in 1859. The image depicts Cinderella, a timeless character known for her resilience and kind heart, sitting humbly in a chimney corner. With soot smudges on her face and tattered clothes, she is surrounded by brooms and dustpans - symbols of her daily toil as a servant. Yet despite her hardships, there is an undeniable glimmer of hope in Cinderella's eyes. Absolon's attention to detail brings this scene to life; every brushstroke seems to tell its own story. The warm glow emanating from the fire casts gentle shadows across Cinderella's delicate features, emphasizing both her vulnerability and inner strength. This print serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst adversity, dreams can still flourish. As we gaze upon Cinderella lost in thought, we are reminded that true beauty lies not only in outward appearance but also within one's spirit. Bridgeman Images has once again captured the essence of fine art with their meticulous reproduction of this masterpiece. This print allows us to bring home a piece of history while celebrating the enduring magic found within classic stories like "Cinderella. "
