EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "The Princess Is Swallowed Up by the Earth" artist Henry Justice Ford transports us into a world of fairy tales and fantasy. The print, now part of a private collection, showcases the enchanting story of "The Queen of the Flowery Isles" from Andrew Lang's renowned book, The Grey Fairy Book. Ford's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke, as he brings to life an otherworldly scene where reality intertwines with imagination. As we gaze upon the image, we witness the dramatic moment when the princess finds herself being consumed by the very earth beneath her feet. Her expression reflects both fear and resignation while surrounded by vibrant flora that seems to echo her plight.
