EDITORS COMMENTS
The King of the Golden River" is a captivating watercolor painting by the renowned English art critic and social commentator, John Ruskin. First published in 1851, this masterpiece is a visual representation of a scene from Ruskin's narrative poem of the same name. The painting depicts an enormous foam globe, on which a little old gentleman with a surprised expression reclines. Ruskin's whimsical and fantastical story revolves around a king who rules over a golden river. The king is known for his greed and insatiable desire for wealth. One day, he makes a deal with three mischievous brownies, who grant him three golden apples a day in exchange for his firstborn child. However, the king is tricked, and his child is taken away. The story takes a surprising turn when the king's kindness and selflessness are revealed, and he is ultimately rewarded with the return of his child and the golden river's bounty. In this painting, Ruskin captures the moment of surprise and wonder on the face of the King of the Golden River as he reclines on a foam globe. The use of vibrant colors and intricate details adds to the magical and enchanting atmosphere of the scene. The painting is a testament to Ruskin's storytelling abilities and his unique artistic vision. John Ruskin's "The King of the Golden River" is a timeless piece that continues to captivate audiences with its folklore charm and moral lesson. The painting is a must-have for any art collection, especially for those who appreciate the works of John Ruskin or are interested in the history of English literature and art.
