OH MY GOD I FORGOT ALL ABOUT THESE

WHAT ARE THESE WHY WERE THEY NOT A PART OF MY CHILDHOOD

aw, robinita hood. love that the voice actors are POC too. these make me so happy, wow!

I have seen 3/4ths of these. Dear white people, I submit to you: You have NO idea how HAPPY I’d get when these came on t.v. How OVERJOYED I was to see people, even cartoons, that looked LIKE ME. Representing stories I’d grown up with, where I got to be the princess. Where brown and black people were happy. Where brown and black people overcame to triumph. Color, to children of color, DOES matter. The success and impact of these episodes from HBO show that. Fairy tales for EVERY child MATTERS.

I didn’t even know these beautiful things existed.

fucking loved this show so goddamn much oh god

I wanna see these!

ruineshumaines:

Illuminated ornaments selected from manuscripts of the Middle Ages, drawn and engraved by Henry Shaw, with descriptions by Sir Frederic Madden. London, William Pickering, 1833.

Series: Between Folds series

Material: Old book

Between Folds / Illuminated Ornaments has been created using a beautiful and rare book on medieval illuminated work. The fine, hand-coloured, etched or lithographed plates have been put together in a way that accentuates their vivid colours and diversity, and the work includes decorated initials, borders (marginalia) and miniature illustrations. The piece reflects the illuminated style of the book and is dominated by an ornamented capital ‘I’. © Francisca Prieto.
