While her sisters showed delight at the wonderful things which they obtained from the wrecks of vessels, she cared only for her pretty flowers, red like the sun, and a beautiful marble statue. She was a strange child, quiet and thoughtful.


One arranged her flower bed in the form of a whale another preferred to make hers like the figure of a little mermaid while the youngest child made hers round, like the sun, and in it grew flowers as red as his rays at sunset. In calm weather the sun could be seen, looking like a reddish-purple flower with light streaming from the calyx.Įach of the young princesses had a little plot of ground in the garden, where she might dig and plant as she pleased. Over everything lay a peculiar blue radiance, as if the blue sky were everywhere, above and below, instead of the dark depths of the sea. The earth itself was the finest sand, but blue as the flame of burning sulphur. Outside the castle there was a beautiful garden, in which grew bright-red and dark-blue flowers, and blossoms like flames of fire the fruit glittered like gold, and the leaves and stems waved to and fro continually.
LITTLE MERMAID ARTOON WINDOWS
The large amber windows were open, and the fish swam in, just as the swallows fly into our houses when we open the windows only the fishes swam up to the princesses, ate out of their hands, and allowed themselves to be stroked.
LITTLE MERMAID ARTOON SKIN
Her skin was as clear and delicate as a rose leaf, and her eyes as blue as the deepest sea but, like all the others, she had no feet and her body ended in a fish’s tail.Īll day long they played in the great halls of the castle or among the living flowers that grew out of the walls. They were beautiful children, but the youngest was the prettiest of them all. She was, however, deserving of very great praise, especially for her care of the little sea princesses, her six granddaughters. She was a very sensible woman, but exceedingly proud of her high birth, and on that account wore twelve oysters on her tail, while others of high rank were only allowed to wear six. The Sea King had been a widower for many years, and his aged mother kept house for him. Their appearance is very beautiful, for in each lies a glittering pearl which would be fit for the diadem of a queen. The roof is formed of shells that open and close as the water flows over them. Its walls are built of coral, and the long Gothic windows are of the clearest amber. In the deepest spot of all stands the castle of the Sea King. Fishes, both large and small, glide between the branches as birds fly among the trees here upon land. No, indeed, for on this sand grow the strangest flowers and plants, the leaves and stems of which are so pliant that the slightest agitation of the water causes them to stir as if they had life. We must not imagine that there is nothing at the bottom of the sea but bare yellow sand. There dwell the Sea King and his subjects. We would encourage parents to read beforehand if your child is sensitive to such themes.įar out in the ocean, where the water is as blue as the prettiest cornflower and as clear as crystal, it is very, very deep so deep, indeed, that no cable could sound it, and many church steeples, piled one upon another, would not reach from the ground beneath to the surface of the water above. There have been countless Little Mermaid Pops in the past, but this VHS cover wins the crown as the best to date just on the nostalgia factor alone.This is a vintage fairy tale, and may contain violence. This figure will also be an Amazon exclusive and cost $19.99. A cool feature with these particular figures is the cases can be mounted on the wall. The cover has all the characters from the film like King Triton, Prince Eric, Flounder, and the evil Ursula surrounding Ariel. Like all the figures in this premium line, Ariel comes in a protective case and has the vintage clamshell VHS cover of The Little Mermaid behind her. The new Pop is a part of Funko’s VHS Cover line and sees Ariel fantasizing about being a part of our world on a rock with the calm waters around her. Now Funko is releasing a new nostalgic Ariel Pop that will have fans swimming with joy. One of Disney’s most exciting remakes coming next year is The Little Mermaid based on the 1989 animated classic. Disney animation is arguably more popular than ever thanks to all the recent live-action remakes of the studio’s classic library of films.
