EDITORS COMMENTS
In this lithograph print, titled "The Parting of Telephassa and Phoenix" artist George Wharton Edwards brings to life a poignant moment from Nathaniel Hawthorne's Tanglewood Tales for Girls and Boys. The scene depicts the emotional farewell between Telephassa and her loyal companion, Phoenix. As we gaze upon the image, we are transported into a mythical world where love and sacrifice intertwine. The delicate lines of Edwards' engraving skillfully capture the tender expressions on both characters' faces, conveying their deep connection and profound sadness at parting ways. Telephassa stands tall with an air of regality, her flowing robes billowing in the wind as she gazes into Phoenix's eyes. Her hand reaches out towards him as if desperately clinging onto their bond. Meanwhile, Phoenix bows his head in sorrowful acceptance, his wings gently folded by his side. Through this visual narrative, Edwards masterfully captures the essence of Hawthorne's tale – a story that explores themes of loyalty, selflessness, and inevitable separation. It serves as a reminder that even in our most cherished relationships, there may come a time when paths diverge. This lithographic print is not only an exquisite piece of art but also an invitation to delve deeper into the enchanting world created by Nathaniel Hawthorne. As we admire its intricate details and contemplate its underlying emotions, let us reflect on our own connections with loved ones – cherishing every moment together while acknowledging that sometimes goodbyes are necessary
