EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "She had read all the newspapers in the world and had forgotten them again, so clever is she" transports us back to 1912. Created by the talented artist Edmund Dulac, this illustration was featured in Stories from Hans Christian Andersen. Dulac's mastery of watercolour and bodycolour brings to life a scene that captures both imagination and intrigue. In this enchanting image, we find ourselves inside a room filled with scattered magazines and untidy papers. A woman sits amidst the chaos, her colorful dress reflecting the vibrant hues of her surroundings. Her expression exudes intelligence and wisdom as if she has absorbed every word written within those countless newspapers. Yet there is an air of mystery surrounding her; for despite having devoured all these stories from around the world, they have slipped away from her memory once more. It is as though her brilliance allows her mind to constantly seek new knowledge while letting go of what no longer serves its purpose. Dulac's portrayal not only showcases his artistic prowess but also pays homage to Hans Christian Andersen's timeless tale, The Snow Queen. Through his brushstrokes, he captures the essence of a fictional character who embodies curiosity and intellectual depth. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded that true wisdom lies not just in acquiring knowledge but also in understanding when it is time to let go and make space for new discoveries.
