EDITORS COMMENTS
Once upon a time in the enchanted realm of ancient folklore, a tale of love, pride, and transformation unfolded between the noble King Thrushbeard and a humble beggar maiden. This image, "King Thrushbeard (The beggar and the proud princess)" by an unknown artist, transports us back to a time when myth and history intertwined. King Thrushbeard, a monarch renowned for his regal bearing and unyielding pride, ruled his kingdom with unwavering authority. Yet beneath his proud exterior, his heart yearned for the simple pleasures of love and companionship. Unbeknownst to him, his future bride, a humble beggar maiden, possessed an enchanting beauty and a voice that could melt the hardest of hearts. The tale begins when the king, disguised as a beggar, encounters the maiden in the forest. Entranced by her beauty, he falls in love and marries her, revealing his true identity only after their union. However, the proud king's pride once again rears its head when he orders his subjects to mock and humiliate his wife, believing her to be a beggar. The heartbroken maiden, in despair, seeks solace in the forest. There, she is discovered by a fairy queen, who takes pity on her and transforms her into a magnificent swan. The king, filled with remorse, sets out to find his beloved, only to be led on a series of trials and tribulations. This evocative print, with its intricate details and vivid colors, brings the magical world of King Thrushbeard to life. The tale serves as a reminder that love, in all its forms, has the power to transform even the most proud and unyielding hearts.
