EDITORS COMMENTS
Every flower changed to Gold, illustration from A Wonder Book for Girls and Boys by Nathaniel Hawthorne, captures the enchanting moment when Greek mythology comes alive. In this mesmerizing print by Arthur Rackham, we are transported into a legendary garden where the touch of a hero turns nature's beauty into pure gold. Inspired by the mythological tale of King Midas, this artwork immerses us in a world filled with wonder and magic. As we gaze upon the intricate details of each delicately illustrated flower, we can almost feel their petals turning to precious metal under our fingertips. Rackham's masterful use of color lithography brings vibrancy and life to every element within the composition. The golden hues that permeate throughout evoke both awe and curiosity as they symbolize Midas' fateful gift and its consequences. This timeless piece from 1928 continues to captivate audiences today with its ability to transport us back in time, allowing us to experience firsthand the power and allure of ancient myths. It serves as a reminder that even in fantastical realms, there is always an underlying lesson or moral waiting to be discovered. As part of The Stapleton Collection held privately, this extraordinary print remains a testament not only to Rackham's artistic prowess but also Nathaniel Hawthorne's enduring storytelling legacy. Every glance at this image invites us on an imaginative journey where flowers turn into gold before our very eyes.
