EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in the timeless tale of Sleeping Beauty. Painted by John Dickson Batten, this tempera artwork depicts the scene where the princess pricks her finger on a spinning wheel, succumbing to a deep slumber that will last for years. The image is bathed in natural light, creating an enchanting atmosphere that transports viewers into a world of fantasy and dreams. The fine details of the textile and fabric are beautifully rendered, showcasing Batten's skill as an illustrator. The room itself exudes an otherworldly charm with its sunburst motif and Victorian aesthetic. It feels like stepping into a fairyland filled with magic and wonder. As we gaze at this historic piece of art, we can almost feel the warmth of sunlight streaming through the attic window. A woolen owl perched nearby adds to the sense of mystery and supernatural elements present in Arthurian legends. The presence of domestic animals such as cats further enhances the dreamlike quality of this artwork. They seem spellbound by what unfolds before them, adding to our own fascination with this fantastical story. Bridgeman Images has preserved this extraordinary work from British artist John Dickson Batten for generations to come. Through their lens, we are transported into a world where fairy tales come alive – where princesses sleep under spells cast by witches and sorcerers exist within our imagination.
