Love is a springtime plant that
perfumes everything with its hope,
even the ruins to which it clings.

Hansel and Gretel weren't the only children abandoned by their parents.

Perrault has a brilliantly named character
Hop-o'-My-Thumb. This little hero finds some clever ways to survive and to save his life as well as that of his brothers.

Gustave Doré's illustrations to Charles Perrault's fairy tales appeared in 1862. The seemingly innocent tale translated as 'Little Tom Thumb' contains one of the most unsettling images in fairy tale history, the ogre's slaying of his seven sleeping daughters

The Aubrey Beardsley retrospective - gorgeous & decadent as expected - slightly ironic personal highlight was the chance to see Gustave Moreau’s jaw dropping The Apparition in the flesh

Hop o' My Thumb

The first half of Hop-o'-My-Thumb is very similar to Hansel and Gretel. The second half of the story involves an ogre, which the hero outsmarts.

Hop-o'-My-Thumb

The beginning mentions that he was no bigger than a man's thumb when he was born. However, it seems that for the remainder of the tale, the protagonist is just a small child, and the tale bears no resemblance to Tom Thumb

"Minos, Judge Of the Damned," Gustave Dore, 1861.

"In the rings and in the courtroom, he's fair and he's firm, a fighter and a family man. He's Minos Lane, America's judge."
