Rumpelstiltskin (portrait of a fairytale antagonist) by bchrisdesigns
This image is based on the fairytale of Rumpelstiltskin by the Brothers Grimm. Here we see Rumpelstiltskin just before the queen over hears him reveal his true identity.
“To-morrow I brew, to-day I bake,
And then the child away I’ll take;
For little deems my royal dame
That Rumpelstiltzkin is my name!"
— the Brothers Grimm
