EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "The Enchanted Snake" artist Henry Justice Ford takes us on a mesmerizing journey into the realm of fairy tales. The image, part of a private collection, showcases an enchanting scene from "The Green Fairy Book" edited by Andrew Lang. As we gaze upon the print, our imaginations are instantly transported to a world filled with magic and wonder. A young child, wide-eyed with curiosity and innocence, stands before an intricately designed snake that seems to possess otherworldly powers. Its scales shimmer with ethereal hues as it coils gracefully around a tree branch. Ford's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. Each leaf on the surrounding foliage is meticulously etched, creating a lush backdrop for this extraordinary encounter. The composition exudes both beauty and mystery as the child gazes intently at the snake, perhaps contemplating its secrets or awaiting its next move. "The Enchanted Snake" reminds us of the timeless allure of fairy tales and their ability to transport us beyond our everyday lives. It serves as a reminder that within each one of us resides a sense of wonderment that can be awakened through art and storytelling. This print from Bridgeman Images captures not only Ford's artistic talent but also invites viewers to rediscover their own inner childlike fascination with stories like these – where anything is possible if we dare to believe in magic.
