EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative illustration by Alfred Bestall, a family gathers around a roaring fire on a dark and chilly night. Their faces are illuminated by the flickering flames as they listen intently to an aged relative spinning a ghostly tale. The children lean forward, their eyes wide with fear and excitement, while the adults cling to each other, their expressions etched with apprehension. Unbeknownst to the family, a medieval knight's sceptre hovers above them, casting an eerie shadow on the wall behind. The knight's ghostly presence adds an extra layer of suspense and intrigue to the already spooky atmosphere. The fire crackles and pops, casting dancing shadows on the walls, while the darkness outside presses in around the cozy scene. Alfred Bestall, best known for his beloved Rupert Bear illustrations, also contributed a number of works to The Tatler during the 1930s. This haunting image showcases his exceptional talent for creating atmospheric and fantastical scenes. The use of dark tones and bold lines adds to the sense of foreboding, while the contrast between the warm fire and the cold darkness outside enhances the feeling of being enveloped in a ghost story. As the relative continues to weave his tale, the family remains frozen in fear, their eyes glued to his every word. The sceptre of the knight hovers above them, a reminder of the supernatural world that exists just beyond their reach. This image invites us to imagine the thrill of a ghost story told by the firelight, and the sense of wonder and fear that comes with it.
