EDITORS COMMENTS
Illustration: Sweetheart Roland, a captivating tale from the Edwardian era brought to life through the magical brushstrokes of renowned illustrator, Edward Ardizzone, in 1909. In this enchanting scene, a young maiden, dressed in a flowing, Victorian gown, reaches for the magic wand, her eyes filled with determination and a hint of apprehension. The sister, whose head is ominously displayed on the wall below, is decapitated, her stepsisters' steps echoing ominously in the background. The blood from the sister's neck drips onto the shadowy, stone floor, casting an eerie contrast against the soft, pastel colors of the maiden's dress. The story of Sweetheart Roland is a fairytale that transcends time, a classic that continues to captivate children and adults alike. The tale weaves a complex web of love, magic, and family dynamics, as the maiden seeks to break the curse that binds her stepsister to an enchanted rose. The illustration, with its intricate details and rich colors, adds depth and complexity to the narrative, transporting us to a world of enchantment and wonder.
