EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the enchanting fairy tale "Doctor Know-all" as illustrated by Arthur Rackham in 1909. In this once-upon-a-time moment, we find ourselves amidst a picturesque bridge where a poor peasant named Crabb is diligently transporting a load of wood to the nearby town for sale. The two sturdy oxen effortlessly pull the oxcart while Crabb walks alongside, pipe in hand, lost in his thoughts. Rackham's vibrant color lithograph brings this Brothers Grimm fable to life, immersing us in its magical realm. As we gaze at the illustration, we can almost hear whispers of ancient myths and tales woven into every brushstroke. The historical graphica collection has preserved this gem from the early 20th century for generations to come. The image evokes nostalgia and sparks curiosity about what lies ahead on Crabb's journey. Will he encounter any mystical creatures or stumble upon hidden treasures? Perhaps Doctor Know-all himself will make an appearance with his uncanny ability to unravel secrets and solve mysteries. This children's illustration invites us into a world where imagination reigns supreme—a place where fairy stories unfold before our eyes. It serves as a reminder that even humble peasants like Crabb can embark on extraordinary adventures filled with wonder and magic.
