How do we imagine the children who inhabit fairy tales – and the children who listened to those tales?
Nowadays, we have lost the time to read these stories anymore or hear them read to us.
Our world – visual, fast and intuitive – has been replaced with television, dvd’s and thousands of cartoons.
These children however are still in our memory; in our daydreams; in the ambiance of the magic of early 20th century movie making and in treasured family portrait albums.
These are Loretta Lux’ children.
