Fairy Tale and Folktale Fridays #41: Disturbing Fairy Tale and Folktale Artworks Part 2

 


 Hey there!  Welcome to "Fairy Tale and Folktale Fridays," a new feature on my blog where I discuss about some fairy tales and folktales I have read throughout the years. 


Wow!  It's been a long time since I last did the "Fairy Tale and Folktale Fridays" feature.  This was my favorite feature for the blog, since I love fairy tales and folktales.  But life got in the way, and I wasn't able to post as frequently on my blog as I used to.

So, to make up for my absence on this blog, I'm going to start up this series again and this time, I wanted to get into showing off some disturbing artworks from various fairy tales and folktales over the years (because there's actually quite a lot of them).  So, here are the second set of disturbing artworks that I've found!


1. Russian Fairy Tales 1: Artwork by Boris Zabirokhin







2. The Giant Enters: Arabian Nights: Artwork by Henry Justice Ford  (SOURCE FOR ARTWORK): ARCHIVE.ORG






3.  Bluebeard from the Brothers Grimm: Artwork by Gustave Doré  (SOURCE FOR ARTWORK): CHARLES PERRAULT'S FAIRY TALES

So, this is the second part of the "Disturbing Fairy Tale and Folktale Artworks!"  I'm hoping to make this a more weekly thing, so stay tuned for more disturbing fairy tale and folktale artworks!
