THE KIDS' READING ROOM; 'Andersen's Amazing Paper Cuttings'; Part 5. The story so far: Hans Christian Andersen was as daring and original with his paper cuttings as he was in his fairy tales
2005
Overview
The two-fold cutting shown here is the last large cutting that [Hans Christian Andersen] made, the year before he died of cancer. It has his usual happy figures -- ballerinas, fairies, gnomes -- but it also has skulls and frowning faces with death masks in two corners. These never appeared in his other cuttings. Still, he showed great steadiness of hand and skill even though he was starting to feel sick. April 2 was Andersen's 200th birthday. Worldwide celebrations will take place over the next eight months. In honor of this special occasion, why don't you ask an adult to help you try your hand at paper cutting? It's easier than you think. You might even try telling a tale as you cut, the way Andersen did. Good luck! CREATION: This is the last large cutting that Andersen made, the year before he died of cancer.; PHOTOGRAPHER: The Hans Christian Andersen Museum, Odense, Denmark
