More about this artwork

Edmund Dulac's enchanting painting, titled "These no sooner saw Beauty than they began to scream and chatter," created in 1910, captivates viewers with its mystical and fairy-tale aura. The artwork depicts a serene scene within a frost-coated forest where a young woman in a long, elegant gown, draped with a detailed cloak, stands amid a flurry of animated birds. The birds, rendered in vivid colors and various states of motion, encompass her, each adding to the lively chatter and dynamic atmosphere of the scene.The delicate details of the birds contrast with the soft, muted tones of the background, accentuating the ethereal quality of the painting. Dulac's use of color and texture creates a dreamlike quality that pulls the viewer into this magical moment, serving as a testament to his skill and his ability to weave narrative depth through visual artistry.

Edmund Dulac (born Edmond Dulac; 22 October 1882 – 25 May 1953) was a French-British naturalised magazine illustrator, book illustrator and stamp designer. Born in Toulouse he studied law but later turned to the study of art at the École des Beaux-Arts. He moved to London early in the 20th century and in 1905 received his first commission to illustrate the novels of the Brontë Sisters. During World War I, Dulac produced relief books and when after the war the deluxe children's book market shrank he turned to magazine illustrations among other ventures. He designed banknotes during World War II and postage stamps, most notably those that heralded the beginning of Queen Elizabeth II's reign.
