Benjamin Lacombe’s haunting illustrations alongside Hans Christian Andersen’s classic story of love and loss showcase the tale in an enchanting new light French artist Benjamin Lacombe has created stunning, one-of-a-kind artwork to illustrate the pages of Hans Christian Andersen’s original tale about a young mermaid who makes a devastating deal with a sea witch and transforms into a human, only to end up heartbroken, lose the deal, and lose her life. The book’s illustrations and design are unique, captivating, and unexpectedly haunting, appealing to adult fans of Benjamin Lacombe and the pop surrealist movement as well as a younger audience, especially with the upcoming nostalgia-fueled remake of Disney’s The Little Mermaid. In addition to Hans Christian Andersen’s classic story, the book also includes additional pages featuring Andersen’s unrequited love letters to Edvard Collins and a postface by Lacombe with historical biography and context. In an essay, Lacombe explores LGBTQ themes in Hans Christian Andersen’s life.

The fairy stories of Hans Christian Andersen are distinct from those compiled with the aid of the Brothers Grimm. Not because of their content material a lot as their provenance. A little known truth amongst individuals who are acquainted with the testimonies of little mermaids and unsightly ducklings is that some of the maximum beloved testimonies penned by way of Andersen virtually have their foundation in his autobiography. Take that duckling that turns out to be a swan, as an example.Andersen grew up not simply dealing with the ravages of poverty, however the ravages of a mom attempting as great she should to cope with encroaching intellectual illness. Her tries to impose a restrictive popularity of conformity upon younger Hans become carried out-just like the mother duck''s-with the first-rate of intentions. Just like the mother duck, the writer''s mom had no concept her perception became reality became no longer pretty actual.The autobiographical idea of The Red Shoes is greater direct: they have been born out of his obsessive interest to the pronounced squeaking which issued forth from his new boots offered mainly to put on at some point of his church affirmation rite. The attention interested in the squeaky boots essentially allowed them to take on an existence of their very own, just like the title shoes of his fairy story which in turn stimulated a traditional movie.Andersen''s fairy stories have retained their strength to enchant in large part by using virtue of delineating standard themes. If the universality of the memories are capable of making character connections with readers across a broad range of social strata, it must no longer be at all unexpected they spring from non-public revel in. Anderson turned into a creator committed to the purity of literary creation. He grew embittered looking less talented writers revel in extra reputation and success with the aid of appealing to fads. Why wouldn''t the sort of creator eventually conceive a tale like "The Emperor''s New Clothes"?The stress of innocence that constantly come truth to stand with the deceptive nature of the person international that recurs in the fairy memories of Hans Christian Andersen talk to a mature mind that never lost touch with the ache of youth. A ache that greater palpable and tangible within the autobiographical worlds of Andersen''s Snow Queen and Tin Soldier than within the worlds of Cinderella and Snow White assembled by the Grimms, however created by way of others.
