Original Description
In Edmund Dulac’s enchanting watercolor On The Bat’s Back I Do Fly After Summer Merrily, a dreamlike scene unfolds under a dusky twilight sky. Inspired by Shakespeare’s The Tempest, the painting depicts Ariel, the ethereal spirit, riding gracefully on a bat’s wing, embodying freedom and whimsy. Dulac’s signature Art Nouveau style shines through in the flowing lines, intricate details, and luminous color palette of blues and golds, evoking a sense of delicate fantasy. Created during the Golden Age of Illustration (early 20th century), this piece exemplifies Dulac’s mastery in blending literary themes with visual poetry, securing his reputation alongside contemporaries like Arthur Rackham. Its surreal, romantic quality makes it a standout in both book illustration and decorative art history, appealing to lovers of mythology and imaginative storytelling.
For interior decor, this painting’s mystic charm lends itself beautifully to studies, libraries, or bedrooms seeking a touch of lyrical escapism. Hang it in a slightly dimmed, intimate space to enhance its glowing hues—pair with vintage brass frames or dark wood finishes to complement its antique elegance. Ideal wall sizes range from medium to large (24x36 inches or similar), allowing details to shine without overwhelming the space. Color-wise, coordinate with deep navy, emerald green, or muted gold furnishings for a cohesive, refined ambiance. In offices, it sparks creativity; in homes, it becomes a conversation piece, especially alongside other Art Nouveau pieces or Shakespearean themes. A subtle backlight can further accentuate its magical atmosphere, making it a focal point of quiet wonder.
