Ogre illustrations: Sleeping Beauty

Too many people forget that Sleeping Beauty is an “ogre tale”. Well... The French version of the story, as told by Charles Perrault, is an ogre tale, with the second antagonist being the evil, wicked, old queen/mother-queen of the prince, an ogress with a particular fondness for the Robert sauce. Here is a series of various illustrations putting forward this too-often neglected character.

Illustration of the queen giving the order to her (technically butler but he is dressed as a cook here) to kill little Dawn and cook her at the Robert sauce. Created by Jacques Godefroi-Jean Midderich and Bertall for the 1893 “Contes de fées tirés de Perrault, Mme d’Aulnoy et Mme Leprince de Beaumont”, part of “La bibliothèque rose illustrée”. 

Illustration of the ogress-queen throwing herself into the vat of snakes and toads, taken from Garnier frère’s “Contes des fées par Perrault, Mme d’Aulnoy, Hamilton et Mme Leprince de Beaumont” (date unclear, between 1850 and 1880). Illustrator unknown.

The queen-ogress killing herself upon the arrival of her son the king, 1865. Unknown artist: part of the famous “images d’Epinal”, more precisely the “Scottish series” of the imagerie d’Epinal. 

Character design and costume concept for the role of the ogress, as played by the famous comic actor Tiercelin, in the “folie-comi-parade” play known as “L’ogresse ou La belle au bois dormant” (1811). Costumes by Fortuné Potier, drawing by Joly. 

The mother-queen suspecting her son of hiding a secret. Illustration by Olivier Desvaux for his “La Belle au bois dormant” (2011)

Malcolm Ashman’s illustration of the old queen preparing the vat of snakes and toads, for Kara May’s “French Fairy Tales”, 1992

Harry Clarke’s illustration of the wicked queen asking for her grand-children to be cooked a la “sauce piquante”. From the 1922′s “Fairy Tales of Charles Perrault”, London.

The evil queen jumping into the pit of snakes. Unknown artist, late 19th century.

Ogre illustrations: Little Thumbling (1)

Given “Le Petit Poucet”, Little Thumbling, is THE most famous ogre fairytale of France, as well as one of France’s most iconic fairytales, period, it is expected that there will be a LOT of depictions of its ogre. Enjoy this first little selection of various pieces depicting the ogre, his wife, or his seven daughters. 

Warning, things can get... disturbing.

Let us begin with an engraving from an 1886 issue of “The Illustrated London News”:

Ariq, the e-ogress

Ariq Birell has made herself a name online: she's pretty much embraced her fashionista e-girl persona and usually streams some games and talks about her next cosplay projects or about magical girls.

Because yes, magical girls are Ariq's passion, since she was a little girl, and what got her into cosplay. And when the first real magical girl group, the Pretty Saviors, was created in the Isle of Murnoe, of course she had to follow them, and she became the founder and president of the Pretty Saviors' official fan club... even years after the group disbanded.
