EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "HARRIS: UNCLE REMUS, 1895" transports us back to the late 19th century America. The image depicts a scene from the beloved folk tale by Joel Chandler Harris, brought to life through the skilled pen-and-ink drawing of Arthur Burdett Frost. In this particular moment, we witness Brer Rabbit exerting his strength as he smashes a rock with determination. Meanwhile, Brer Terrapin watches on with curiosity and intrigue. The contrasting expressions on their faces capture the essence of this timeless story that has captivated generations. The illustration beautifully captures the spirit of African American literature during this era. It serves as a reminder of both the rich cultural heritage and artistic contributions made by African Americans in shaping American folklore. As we gaze upon this piece, we are transported to a time when oral storytelling was cherished and celebrated. We can almost hear Uncle Remus himself recounting tales filled with wisdom and humor to eager listeners around him. This print is not just an artwork; it is a testament to the power of storytelling and its ability to transcend time and connect people across generations. It reminds us of our shared humanity while honoring those who have contributed immensely to our literary traditions.
