EDITORS COMMENTS
The Witch Thurid, with her mystical powers and ancient knowledge, is captured in this lithograph by Henry Justice Ford. In this enchanting scene from 'The Book of Romance, ' edited by Andrew Lang, we witness the witch as she cuts a charm on a weathered log. Set against a backdrop of towering trees and lush foliage, Thurid's presence emanates an aura of both power and mystery. Her delicate yet purposeful hand movements reveal her deep connection to nature and the supernatural realm. As she carves intricate symbols onto the log, one can almost feel the energy being infused into the charm. This artwork transports us to a time when superstition held great sway over people's lives. The belief in charms was prevalent during this early twentieth-century era, where individuals sought protection or good fortune through these magical objects. Ford's meticulous attention to detail brings every element of this composition to life – from the texture of the tree trunk to each stroke of Thurid's blade. The black-and-white lithograph adds an air of antiquity and nostalgia that further enhances its allure. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded not only of our fascination with folklore but also our enduring curiosity about ancient practices and their place in history.
