EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "An Attack, 1893" by Theodor Severin Kittelsen showcases a mesmerizing scene from his series "Do the animals have a soul". In this artwork, we witness an extraordinary anthropomorphic world where gentlemanly behavior and chivalry prevail. The image depicts a female figure gracefully protected by a well-dressed gentleman. As they stroll through a field of wild flowers during harvest time, their peaceful walk is abruptly interrupted by the sudden appearance of menacing flying insects. With fear in her eyes, the lady clings to her parasol for safety while the gentleman valiantly shields her from harm. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he portrays various insect species such as mosquitoes and grasshoppers with human-like characteristics. This whimsical touch adds an element of fantasy to the painting, blurring the line between reality and imagination. Kittelsen's masterful use of watercolor on paper brings life to every stroke, capturing both beauty and vulnerability in this enchanting scene. The delicate colors blend harmoniously with soft brushstrokes, creating an atmosphere that transports viewers into this magical realm. Through "An Attack". Kittelsen explores themes of protection and bravery amidst unexpected challenges. It serves as a reminder that even in nature's most daunting moments, there are always individuals willing to shield others from harm. This artwork is truly a testament to Kittelsen's artistic prowess and his ability to evoke emotions through his illustrations.
