EDITORS COMMENTS
Once upon a time, in the 1830s, a captivating fairy tale was born, penned by the brilliant Danish author Hans Christian Andersen. This enchanting story, titled "Thumbelina," was first published in 1835, and has since then, captured the hearts of readers young and old. In the beginning of this magical tale, a tiny girl emerges from the unfurling petals of a flower. The silhouette of Thumbelina, as delicate as a flower herself, appears before our eyes. This moment, immortalized in this 1959 print from Mary Evans Prints Online, takes us back to the historical era of the 1500s, where fairies and enchantment were believed to be a part of everyday life. The flower pot, nestled in a lush garden, is the cradle of this extraordinary being. The golden hues of the print add a warm and inviting touch to the scene, transporting us to a world of wonder and imagination. Thumbelina's birth, marked by the opening of a flower, is a testament to the beauty and magic that can be found in even the smallest of things. This print, a relic of the 1950s, is a reminder of the enduring power of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales, which continue to captivate and inspire generations. The tale of Thumbelina, with its themes of love, adventure, and the power of the imagination, is a timeless classic that continues to enchant and delight.
