EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print takes us back to the enchanting world of English Fairy Tales, specifically the famous story of Jack and the Beanstalk. Published in 1922, this colour lithograph by Arthur Rackham beautifully captures a pivotal scene from this beloved fairytale. In the image, we find ourselves immersed in an interior setting where danger lurks. A giant looms large, his menacing presence palpable as he utters those iconic words: "Fee-Fi-Fo-Fum, I smell the Blood of an Englishman". The artist's attention to detail is evident as every element comes to life - from the expressive faces of Jack and a woman hiding behind a boiler to the mischievous goat and cow nearby. Rackham's illustration transports us into a mythical realm where heroes face unimaginable challenges. The use of vivid colours adds depth and intensity to this timeless tale. As we gaze upon this artwork, we can't help but feel both awe-struck by its beauty and captivated by its narrative power. Part of the Historica Graphica Collection, this print serves as a testament to Rackham's talent for bringing fairytales alive through his illustrations. It reminds us that even in our modern age, these stories continue to resonate with audiences young and old alike.
