EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century advertising label transports us to the enchanting world of Cinderella. The print, titled "Cinderella tries the slipper of vair" showcases a momentous scene from this beloved folktale. Unknown Artist skillfully captures the anticipation and hope in Cinderella's eyes as she delicately slips her foot into the glass slipper. The label originates from Bon Marche, a prominent department store known for its literature and boutique offerings during that era. It serves as a testament to the enduring popularity of this timeless tale, which continues to captivate hearts across generations. The vibrant colors and intricate details are brought to life through chromolithography, an innovative printing technique popular at that time. This process adds depth and richness to every element of the artwork, making it truly mesmerizing. Leonard de Selva's expert photography beautifully preserves this historical piece, allowing us to appreciate its beauty today. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of Charles Perrault's classic version of Cinderella published in 1697 – a story that has become synonymous with dreams coming true against all odds. This print is not only a visual delight but also a valuable artifact representing artistry and storytelling from centuries past. It reminds us how art can transcend time and continue inspiring wonderment in our modern world.
