Description
English: Hansel and Gretel

Record number: 23031801 Artist: Item caption, front: Item caption/descriptive text, back: Uniform title: Grimm: Hänsel und Gretel (“Hansel and Gretel”) Dimensions: 102 x 142 mm. Date: Nationality: German Publisher: Series: Märchen Nr. 6 [316] Medium: Interpretive notes: This card's illustration is in the form of a triptych, a three-panel composition inspired by medieval altarpieces with folding outer wings. In the large central panel, the Witch, having confined Hansel in a cage, checks to see whether he is plump enough to cook. Gretel anxiously watches in the upper right background. The narrower left panel shows the children's parents leading them away from home into the forest. Hansel is scattering pebbles or bread crumbs he plans to use to find their way back home. In the right panel, as night falls beneath a full moon, Hansel comforts Gretel after their parents have abandoned them by a small fire in the depths of the forest. Subject headings: Brothers; Sisters; Mothers; Fathers; Witches; Moon; Fire
