EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Struldrugs" a mesmerizing illustration from the renowned novel Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift. Created in 1909, this colour lithograph is a true masterpiece brought to life by the talented artist Arthur Rackham (1867-1939). In this fantastical scene, we are transported to an enchanting world where gnarled and ancient beings roam. The image depicts a child-like figure bent over on cobblestone streets, surrounded by an aura of mystery and adventure. Seated beside them is an old individual with a staff or stave, exuding wisdom and knowledge. Rackham's attention to detail transports us into the heart of Laputa, one of Gulliver's many extraordinary destinations. The composition captures both the whimsy and depth found within Swift's literary universe. As part of the Historica Graphica Collection, this print allows us to appreciate Rackham's artistic prowess while immersing ourselves in the rich history of literature. It serves as a reminder that art has the power to ignite our imagination and transport us beyond reality.
