EDITORS COMMENTS
Man in a Tree is Grasped by a Snake: A Scene from The Thousand and One Nights, 1910 or earlier, by Dutch artist H.C. Louwerse. This monochrome illustration depicts two bearded men in turbans, dressed in traditional Arabian clothing, climbing a tree in an attempt to escape an enormous snake. The serpent, with its grey, scaly body and fungus-like growths, lunges towards them, ready to strike. The men's expressions of fear and surprise are palpable, as they cling to the tree branches for dear life. The scene is reminiscent of stories from The Thousand and One Nights, a collection of Middle Eastern folktales that have captivated audiences for centuries. Louwerse masterfully captures the drama and tension of this moment, using pencil and paper to bring the figures and the natural elements to life. This illustration is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Low Countries and the enduring appeal of the stories from The Thousand and One Nights.
