EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Marvellous tales of Haunted Fields, and Haunted Brooks, and Haunted Houses" takes us on a journey into the mystical world of Washington Irving's renowned story, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Created by the talented Arthur Rackham in 1928, this colour lithograph beautifully captures the essence of horror and intrigue that surrounds Sleepy Hollow. In this enchanting scene, we find ourselves amidst spooky trees with twisted branches reaching out like skeletal fingers against a windy sky. A young boy walks alongside his grandmother and mother, their faces filled with both curiosity and trepidation. They are accompanied by a loyal black cat and an eager dog who seem to sense the eerie presence lurking within these haunted fields. The artist skillfully portrays the hurried pace at which they move forward as if trying to escape an unseen danger. Shutters bang shut on nearby houses as if sealing off secrets from prying eyes. The basket carried by the boy hints at a purposeful journey through this haunted landscape. Rackham's use of vibrant colours adds depth to every element in this illustration - from the vivid green grass beneath their feet to the ominous shadows cast by gnarled tree trunks. This historic piece from Heritage Images is not just a mere image but rather an invitation for viewers to immerse themselves in Irving's timeless tale where legends come alive under moonlit skies.
